i thought about storing custom data in a plugin tag. ( the data won't be stored in a container ! )
But how would i write and read data from the tag ?
e.g. i would like to have something like the HNWeightTag. AFAIK this is implemented as plugin as well.
... after having looked at the HNWeightTag source i guess using MSG_RETRIEVEPRIVATEDATAMSG is the right way to communicate with my tag, correct ?

Overload Read and Write in your TagData class... You should also overload the CopyTo method.
