     I believe so.  I have only ever used the invisible object function and 
the others I have not as I assumed they were legacy code. I don't know 
if there is an issue where it is different with inserting these 
invisible inventory objects as opposed to visible inventory objects.  
Really you should just create the arch by name and it will have 
visibility as a property or not - there should be no diffrnece in 
creating a marker or spell object from creating a shield or glove 
object.  However, I haven't tried this and if there is  a difference 
then the way this should work is to be able to insert these types of 
archetypes by passing their name from a single function instead of 
having a function for each type.  Perhaps adding an optional archetype 
name field which defaults to 'force' to the InvisibleObject() functions.

Another big thing along the same lines would be to clean up the spell 
and skill stuff...  I don't know how the spell and skill wrappers can be 
loaded into the plugin any longer now that they are dynamically loaded 
from the arches, but this is a lot of legacy code in the plugin.
