Picasa, Flickr export plugins for Adobe Lightroom

I just found about the export plugins for Picasa and Flickr:

Awesome! Thanks Jeffrey for putting these together. This of course would not have been possible without Adobe's Lightroom SDK, which is pretty cool in itself.

What I'd really like to have is a plugin that emulates Apple's iPhoto Digital Photo Access Protocol (DPAP) protocol. This way the other Macs in my home can view Lightroom's albums as a regular remote iPhoto. Apparently some people reversed engineered this protocol and have an implementation available in Perl.

Hopefully future versions of the Lightroom SDK will include the ability to run plugins at all times in their own thread, as well as have the ability to use server side sockets.
