Allow user defined tags (random only)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Throwing this in as an idea, may not be possible.

This is more an advanced feature request for use by skinners who want to 
use additional & seperate backdrop sources over those supplied.

Currently the the plugin has pre-defined tags for the common backdrop 
type. What would be good is to able to define/enable additional tags, I 
see these as being only for random display of images in a folder.

Example

Random fanart for 'Settings'

Would enter 2 items, name and source image folder

and this would make available the additional screen properties 
#fanarthandler.<name>.backdrop1.any
#fanarthandler.<name>.backdrop2.any

Displaying fanart from the entered folder.

and 3 additional visibility controls created/enabled.

Hi,

This is a very good add on and one that I would like to implement but I will 
not do 
it before this plugin is stable and I have no more major issues reported as 
this new 
feature will change much of the code in the current plugin. It will also make 
the 
plugin to use more memory so implementing this feature could potentially make 
MP 
running slower and use more memory but in the end this is up to the users. If 
they do 
not configure fanart handler to use optional folders the plugin should work as 
before.

best regards
