Hi,
  I have two suggestions to ImageJ:
  1. the show() method in the PlugInFrame skeleton code is deprecated in
JDK, may ImageJ use setVisible(true) instead?
  2. as sun will open source Java, in JDK 6.0 the package javax.tools has
supplied some interface to control javac compiler. Now ImageJ uses
tools.jar to access javac directly. Maybe ImageJ can add some classes or
methods to use the new javax.tools.JavaCompiler class and others to
compile plugins. More Java Compiler API infomation can be found at
http://download.java.net/jdk6/doc/api/.
  By the way, I have installed JDK 6.0 rc b100, and found that the
performance has some improved by using ImageJ's benchmark utility :)
