your definition of the "hierarchy" is a bit misplaced. you have tried

  rk.plugin.component(..., hierarchy = list("Shiny", "ggquickeda"), ...)

if you consult ?rk.plugin.component you can see hierarchy here only allows a 
subset of known top level menus of which "Shiny" is not a part, and therefore 
it falls back to the default "test".

that is unless you define a "Shiny" top menu instead with

  rk.plugin.skeleton(
    ...,
    pluginmap=list(
      name="ggquickeda",
      hierarchy=list("Shiny")
    ),
    ...
  )

you must then move the "xml", "js", "rkh" and "provides" definitions from 
rk.plugin.component() to rk.plugin.skeleton() as well and remove 
"ggquickeda_component" from the components in rk.plugin.skeleton(), because it 
is also defined as the default component.

in short, if a plugin has only one component, you should put its definition 
directly in rk.plugin.skeleton(), and add only additional components as 
rk.plugin.component() objects.
