Yeah, that's basically what I'm doing.  I've been trying to make my  
code as re-usable as possible across different plugins, so I was  
hoping for something a bit more flexible.

(The Settings Page form will be different every time of course, so  
that's not a big deal, but I'm also writing code to add the Settings  
link directly to the Manage Plugins actions.)

Actually, even as I wrote that I think I've figured out what to do.  I  
anticipate a Trac ticket that does something handy. ;)
