---+ Applications Messaging Uses
Below are some informal descriptions of the sorts of uses envisaged for application messaging.

---++ PLASTIC
These are some of the current uses of PLASTIC:

Instruct an app to:
   * load a VOTable
   * load a FITS image
   * load a spectrum
   * select/highlight a subset of points in a scatter plot
   * create a new table from a row subset
   * highlight an object in one view as the mouse hovers over the same object in another view (in a different application)
   * work on a selection of a columns in a table (for instance, run a kmeans clusterer on only some columns/attributes)
   * load a (registry) VOResource description and do "something appropriate"
   * show a particular area of sky
   * display a group of clusters (in the datamining sense) in different colours (not yet implemented)
   * ask another application to display a DSS preview image of a given region of the sky
   * display the location of a VOEvent
