 This is a list of plugin ideas that have been vetted and will at some point in time be available for voting by patrons.
+===== Paste Image =====
+Paste an image from the clipboard as an image into LW.
+Use https://github.com/dacap/clip for cross platform clipboard access.
+===== Item Placement =====
+Placing an item on the surface of another item, based on the Polygon Picker intersection code. This would also, optionally, re-parent.
+===== Copy / Paste Keys =====
+Copy / paste keys for the currently selected item.
+===== Octane Layers =====
+Like Layout Groups, but for Octane Layers. One Layer per item only.
+Tag: '' Octane_RenderLayer=3''
+===== Motion Path Visualiser =====
+A custom object that's attached to an item and will display the motion path of the item.
+===== Mixer / Composite Node =====
+Differently from our mixer node, which allows just two inputs, this one can have infinite inputs. Each one has its mask, and can have different % value and blending mode. BTW in second image you have just two inputs, but you can add as many as you need.
+Basically it's same layer system as Photoshop. This would really help in keeping nodeflows compact, atm if we need to mix a lot of texture we have to blend two, then ad another mixer with third one, then another, etc. - and flow becomes quite complex.

+===== Selections =====
+Additional selections: Groups and Instancers
+Click on an instance and select the instancer.
+Click on an item and select the group.
+Groups are defined by nulls hosting a special plugin or stored as item comments.
+Groups can be created and removed using plugins.
+Based on [[tools:polygon-picker]]
+===== Single Input, Multiple Outputs =====
+Take a single scalar input to drive any amount of outputs by distributing the value. With different spline based interpolations.
 ===== Copy Deformer =====
