Is it possible for a menu plugin to detect if it was already opened (it has a dialog) and, if it is, simply show that dialog instead of opening a new clone?
Because when I choose a plugin that was already opened, I get a new dialog and shortly after, Cinema4D crashes. Since this only happens after that action, I assume that it is caused by the opening of more than one instance of the plugin.

Not sure if this is valid COFFEE, haven't used that language for a while.
