Indeed, this was exactly the plan B I described earlier. Like I said, my only real objection to this is I have to remember to use the script to process the file rather than double-clicking and extracting. (And besides, I thought it might be fun to learn a bit about writing plugins.)
All I really want to know at this point is, are there any foreseeable problems with the plugin approach I'm suggesting?
