How about data plugins for label *g*? Label provides the means to graphically display text (w/ its string functions). Then you can categorize and move out more specific data-retrieving functions out of label?. I'm suggesting something like Rainmeter's plugins. Or hey, use those somehow; Rainmeter is like the more graphical sibling of Label.

But doing things in this manner would result in more bloat if you choose to display everything available, which seems to be the case with many Label users. Are the functions in such a number and size to practically need categories: basic (sysinfo, time), mbm, net, fromFile, other apps (winamp), (future stuff)?
