Universal Data Fetcher - Weather monitor, minus the weather

I think maybe the title of this topic "Universal Data Fetcher" underestimates the full potential of this plugin. As you say yourself, Mr. Shapeshifter:-

you'd essentially be creating hundreds of plugins at once. But more importantly, you'd be distributing the ability to make future plugins to us non-plugin programmer types.

Great plugins could be made if a skin could include clickable buttons, and programs could be run from those buttons.
