I was initially having troubles getting this to work, so I contacted the creator. He was more than generous with support, and it turns out it was just some PEBKAC on my behalf (it should be installed via the WIZARD manager, not the Plugin manager as I was doing). Silly error on my behalf.
The plugin works perfectly, very handy. Well done!

Now that the Plugin Tool is a Component it should be installed via Admin - System Extensions - Manage Components.
