Ephemeral-ish Addon

I remember several months ago, there was an addon called Ephemeral which was about the best RP addon i've ever seen, but it had tons of bugs and the author finally discontinued it. So i was wondering if i could make sure a request for anyone to make an addon that works slightly in the same way?

The addon would give the player a "virtual bag" to put in player-created items, like Keys, Non-usable Equips, Containers, Scrolls/Books, and such.

In the Item Creation you could make a name, pick an icon, and have Use: and flavor text in them, or you could write your own readable books and scrolls as those found in quests.

The best option to make it an ultimate RP addon would be the ability to TRADE those "items" with other people using that addon, so they can read your fan-made book/diary, or give them containers like a custom-made Lockbox that can contains up to four items in it.

As a personal request, make it Ace'd if possible, and not use a channel to trade the info, my channels are already full =[

I've seen a few addons that traded info without any trace, such as Cart GuildPosition, later figured it was in a "Guild data channel" (or something to that name), so could it be possible to use that channel when avaible or to give the option to make it via other means such as hidden whispers for non-guilded people.

Thank you in advance, even if its only for having read this.

Here's a fan update: http://www.wowinterface.com/download...icEdition.html

As for making an addon "Ace'd", it doesn't matter if an addon is written with the Ace framework (which is dead), the Ace2 frameword (which is on its way out), the Ace3 framework, Dongle, Rock, Cosmos, etc, etc, or no framework at all. Good authors, not frameworks, make good mods.
