Actually this had been sitting on my hard drive for a long time (around 
six months ago I was trying to make Cocoon Blocks become plugins). At 
the time I did the work the include wasn't available.

I spotted this when I started work on the portal plugin yesterday, silly 
really since it was me who brought the xconf include stuff into Forrest 
a while back.

ANyway, long story short, I am half way through reimplementing this 
using the include stuff. I'm a bit busy for the next coupld of days, but 
should be complete very soon.

Thanks for watching ;-)
