Same remark as Paolo, but it may not apply if your plugin is designed 
for very specific needs.

The charmap plugin is a gucharmap integration in gedit, and so provide a 
way to insert any unicode symbol; they are sorted by script, the way 
they are in gucharmap. It has a few bugs too ;-)

But it's written in C, and already provided by distros like ubuntu edgy. 
And we are always happy of getting patches ;-)
