I can only recommend that you post such a request on the Adobe SDK mailing list. You can subscribe to it on the Adobe Web site.

I want to develop a pure Bitmap filter Plugin. I am able to enabled the BitmapPlugin with the PIPL-parameter "SupportedModes" and "EnableInfo". ...

Is there anyone, who has developed a pure Bitmap filter Plugin?
I believe Filter plugins can only work on 8 bit channels, therefore they cannot be used on a Bitmap mode image.

One workaround might be converting to Grey Scale mode before filtering; or, depending on what you are doing, perhaps an Export plugin can help?
