Stability is affected more by programming than the size of plugins. Even on machines with very little RAM, the large plugins would only slow it down, not make it unstable, as long they were written well. Besides, I don't see what would make HorusUK's suggested plugin necesarily any larger than Weather Monitor. It might take up a bit more resources when running, but it's a plugin. If you don't like it, don't use it. I for one would like to see this functionality, either as a seperate plugin (i.e. Universal Data Fetcher), or as a part of weather monitor.
