How to make an AEGP plugin invisible

I'm developing an AEGP plugin, based on the AE SDK "Commando" example.

By default, the plugin name appears grayed-out in After Effects "Window" toolbar. I want it to be completely remove it from there, as it's goal is to work on the background and be invsible to the user.

How can I achieve that?

just don't use AEGP_InsertMenuCommand or AEGP_RegisterCommandHook. they're only needed to put a menu entry.
