I see. Would it have any negative side-effect, if you just remove the check

I'm still not sure what is the best way to handle this. But we already have 
one rkwarddev script in plugins/rkwarddev_scripts, and so you can simply 
follow that path for now.

Of course, having both in git is potentially asking for trouble. Sooner or 
later someone (or a script) will overlook the warning at the top of the 
generated files, and make changes, there, which are not represented in the 
rkwarddev-script. Ideally, rkwarddev-based plugins would be generated during 
cmake, somehow(*), and git-ignored...

Regards
Thomas

(*): But that is not trivial, either
- Should work without prior installation of XiMpLe and rkwarddev
- Need to make sure the generated files go to the correct location
- Should ideally detect and warn about edits by hand (perhaps by storing a 
timestamp inside the generated file, or something)
