Yeah OK, that would do it... :-)

I haven't looked for myself, but is this implemented as a compiled in option or is it scriptable?  I would see the point of the plugin architecture as being the way you make running arbitrary filters scriptable rather than hardwired.  (or any other stuff inserted dynamically)

However, I clearly haven't researched this first, so please ignore if this is way off target
