public interface SingletonPlugin
extends SciJavaPlugin

Interface for plugins intended to be instantiated as singletons. A singleton plugin is a stateless SciJavaPlugin, such that the SingletonService can maintain a list of singleton instances.

This interface exists mainly to facilitate differentiation between plugin types intended as singletons and those which are not. It also serves as a placeholder for any potential singleton-plugin-specific API added in the future.
