OK, thanks. I know well enough how to trigger mambot/plugin processing. That is the easy bit.
The issues are:
1) There is a problem with implementing the code shown in your link because there is no precise definition of the interface to a content mambot. The assumption is that the parameter ($row) is a complete database row from the content table. Simply passing an object that contains only the text is liable to cause some content mambots to fail. Whether this is a problem will depend on what mambots are in use.
2) The wider issue is where exactly should there be trigger points in Glossary. The big questions are:
a) Where to put a trigger b) What parameters to pass to the plugins c) What processing has to be done on the return values (if any)
