Some of the buzztouch original plugins support them. In addition, I wrote my Storybook plugin to support them as well. Other than that, you'd have to either check with the plugin developer, or look through the code itself. I've been planning to do a training webinar on this subject, but had to push it to the "back burner" for now. Maybe soon...
