Hmm.. this name change reminds me that it might be better if this plugin
and option list belong to a pevent..

Unnecessary change?

What about making it a macro like INVALID_OPTION_LIST?

This will lost the original list pointer.  Please use a temp variable.

Isn't it enough to simply return the list?

Shouldn't it be >= instead of > ?

Thanks,
