Right now the only things that are pluggable are displays and point cloud transformers (used mainly for generating color from different channels). This makes writing plugins that interact with the scene through selection/etc. impossible to do nicely (it is possible to hack together, but only in a way that forces a crash whenever rviz exits).
Hi all,
I was thinking about writing a teleop node that lets
me select one of PR2's tf-frames and move the according
joint graphically. It seems to me, making it an rviz
plugin would be the right choice, as a lot of
functionality would be given. I think this wouldn't
be too complex to implement. However, the wiki says:

So my question is, whether it is indeed a bad idea to
make such an rviz plugin at this point in time.
Otherwise, where would I get the necessary documentation?
I am using latest, are there any plugins I could use as
a starting point?
Regards,
Felix
