>> One question I have ... I left game, and returned later to continue testing. I had approx 1.5 hours left on buffs (I'd used it to force the rebuff on creature/item/life at first use). When I started the macro, it rebuffed item only. Is this by design? When timers got down to five minutes remaining on buffs, it promptly kicked in and started rebuffing.
This is how it is supposed to work. Since as far as I can tell there's no way to know how long item buffs have left on them, it always recasts them when you relog so it can be sure they don't drop. The same is of course not true of normal buffs so it only casts those when you need them. If you want the whole thing rebuffed at the start, hit force buff. 
You can save the character's age when the buff was last cast on the item, and compare it to the character's current age to see how long ago the buff was cast. The only case where this wouldn't work is if the item was given to another character and the player using your plugin logged off for a while, then was given the item back when they logged back in. That seems like an unlikely situation, so you probably wouldn't have to account for it.

>> On another note, I have augmented 2 hour buffs. VT looks like it only knows 1 hour and went to rebuffing me while on a coin run in col when I still had 1 hour buffs. Is it possible to add a setting for how long your toon has for buffs?
VT autodetects the number of archmage's endurance augmentations you have...it should take this into account when buffing, and even in refreshing target debuffs if you wait that long.

Yeah, I've considered that, but it's still somewhat of a 'hack'.

Updated to 0.3.0.5. The main thing I changed was the save as buttons...they were not working properly. The correct command to save a profile starts with /vt, while they were pasting /ut into the chatbox, so people were unable to create profiles with different names.
Oh, and I added the ability to use barbed arrows

Let me see...looting could be much easier to set up. Mine seems to lock up. A Debuff all option would be nice. I'm not sure how the save thing works though I read your posts thoroughly. I added a few to the monster window with vulns, imps and things I prefer. I incorrectly assumed they would be saved once I logged. When I hit the save button, I get the message in red of invalid command. I'm not sure what determines what wand you set or how for buffing. It works awesome with my archer. Also works greak for my sword character. My mage seems to wand to wield bunches of different wands. So it seems it has some trouble keeping up in mixed mobs. That's all for now. Hope that helps a bit. I'll have more later but for now I'd love it if looting worked better

AC+ does exactly this for tracking item buffs, although in the process I discovered a bug in AC with character age- it only increases at about 0.895 hours for every real hour. I sent Turbine a screeny with a character who'd been created less than 16 hours ago according to the age, but had the pre-order buff cast more than 17 hours ago. If you account for this however, it works well enough.
