[launchd-dev] SMJobBless and plugins

Hi,

I need to run an authorized tool from a preference pane.
Actually, SMJobBless sample code explains how to install and run a tool from an application
but it seems to me that it can't work for a plugin.
A workaround I can see is to ship the preference pane with an installer app that contains the daemon.
But I have no real idea of the security concerns of such a design.
Any hint ?

Thanks in advance

JL
