Hi, 
I did open a feature request on their end to, I posted the link in a previous
comment:

My guess is that if they provided on their end an easy interface to add
documents to the local database (e.g. mendeley --add paper.pdf) then the plugin
should be rather easy. 

As I just mentioned another possibility which wouldn't involve a closed desktop
client, would be to inteface with their web service instead and add the
document to the online collection. There are bookmarklets for firefox for that
effect, so this sort of interface is possible. 

Quite frankly aigaion doesn't really compare to Mendeley. Not just talking
about features or software quality. But Mendeley is about much more than just
the reference management software (there's discovery services, networking,
statistics, etc).
