I like it too ;)

Actually this is much better than before.

This makes RKWard much more customizable.

I have made the changes (hopefully according to the plans).
@Ilias
scatterplot_matrix, cor_graph and barplot are for the time being in 
under_development.pluginmap till they are considered as stable. Later they 
just need to be merged to plot.pluginmap
@me
for wilcoxon_test and wilcoxon_exact_test the same happened as for the plots 
mentioned above
@PK
I think me or Thomas has to do it for you since you have no svn access (or do 
you?)
@Thomas
Hope I did not mess it up to much. But as usual you'll check everything with 
patience.
I think I have forgotten to transfer those entries from 
import_export.pluginmap to under_development.pluginmap. (I lost the track if 
there was a developmental change recently (updated me local copy before going 
through all changes, stupid me).
The Makefile.am pays attention to all existing pluginmaps (at least I hope 
so).
