Yeah, figured it wouldn’t take long before that was requested, haha.

Thing is, I don’t know how to do this 😃 The current plugin is a pretty straightforward modification of the [excellent plugin tutorial](https://meta.discourse.org/t/beginners-guide-to-creating-discourse-plugins-part-1/30515) by @eviltrout

I don’t know how to create an “add icon” button that spawns multiple fields; I know it can be done, since the navigation plugin does so, but I’m pretty new at this and I just created this one out of a personal need and to learn.

I might take a crack at this during a weekend somewhere, until then.. PRs are welcomed 🙂
