This adds the
MessagePluginId
bindable keybind action. Similar toMessagePlugin
, this will create a pipe that will send a message to a specific plugin - only here it will be done by this plugin's runtime ID.The purpose is to use this with the
reconfigure
plugin API to essentially allow plugins to temporarily bind global keys in the session to send messages to themselves.Example:
Note: this sort of keybind action should only be used in this case. It is not serialized with the user's config and should not be trusted to persist across sessions. If placed statically in a configuration it might have unintended consequences (seeing as plugin ids are assigned at runtime).
