    99Many plugins choose to use plugin actions to introduce their functionality.  The I'dle Mak'er plugin distributed with the Pidgin source code implements its functionality using a combination of plugin actions and the request API.  The List Handler plugin, a third-party plugin, does this as well.  Plugin actions are a flexible mechanism to introduce new functionality that isn't conversation-specific or may not exactly fit anywhere else.
