 * I’m wondering if it is possible to make a few edits to a plugin’s file(s) so 
   I could re-upload it under a different name but it have the same functionality
   as the original plugin? (So WP basically views it as a completely different plugin)
 * What I have is a widget for the sidebar and if I name it something else I can
   change the settings in plugin_original versus plugin_new.
 * Anyone know if this is difficult or just a matter of a few edits in some files
   within the plugin?
