Please give me feedback and make suggestions what features you would like.

Features:

Lets trees act like cacti - remove a block and all blocks above are yieled too.
Or you can make that log blocks move down one by one instead - no more climbing trees.

Also works with "big" trees that have multiple branches - makes felling them a lot easier.
Restrict using this plugin to certain tools only.

ChopTree

Basically it's a bukkit version of Timber. You chop down the bottom log of a tree, and like in the real world the whole tree comes down.

You're lazy.

When it takes five MC days to chop down a monster tree, it goes beyond lazy.

I support this.

Quick question about this. If we limited it to just one specific tool [in this case the Diamond Axe] would that be more reasonable? Currently there's no real reason to use a diamond axe over an iron one.
