Hi Jónathan,
Excited to see you working on this. However, in this case, you might get a
better response on the ImageJ Forum (
http://forum.imagej.net/), and/or on
the Gitter channels (
https://imagej.net/Chat), since you are asking about
very developer-centric things.
I am sorry I have not had time to reply in depth to your questions, but I
am rather overwhelmed right now. There are quite a few people on the forum
familiar with the SciJava development paradigm though, and you all can
always @mention me if you really need my advice specifically.
Regards,
Curtis
