I don't think you'll find a lot of samples, but one idea would be to have
the applications call a special version of EvtGetEvent() --
ToolbarGetEvent(), perhaps. That code would call EvtGetEvent(), then filter
out ones intended for the toolbar. You might even be able to support
multiple forms by swapping the active form, calling your toolbar's form
event handler, then restoring the previous active form.
It would be yet another API change required for the plugin apps, but it
sounds like you're already requiring some changes, and for most apps, this
would only affect the one line in the AppEventLoop() function.
