9657	Allow custom screen_meta dropdown panels	hakre	ptahdunbar	"It would be nice for plugins to have their own meta links (next to help) on their admin page(s).

For example, for a plugin, I was able to hack some stuff with javascript and reuse the (unused) second tab (known as 'display options') to inject own stuff (see attached pictures, compare to current breadcrumb navxt svn code). but that is a somehow stinky hack that I as plugin developer need to take care of for each WP release. It would be nice to have an api for that adding 0-n of such tabs by a hook returning a title and content.

therefore the javascript needs a little tweak to handle additional tabs, the stylesheet should be adopted sothat it is more lightweight and can handle all tabs at once (currently using ids). a test-plugin can be provided to show the functionality.

then template.php needs to have the one or other addition in php code to create the hooks.
