Yes, I tried that one. The first version of Mediamonkey I tried it with was 4.0.6 or 4.0.7, so... yeah, it didn't quite work. I like the idea, but I don't think a dockable panel is the best choice for lyrics editor, as the editor needs as much space it can get.
What I have in mind is more of a modification of the standard lyrics editing field in Mediamonkey. I'm not sure if it's doable through scripting, but, if there was a way to replicate MiniLyrics' "Lyrics editor" controls and attach them to Mediamonkey's lyrics editing field, we could easily get rid of MiniLyrics altogether.
Right now I'm using MiniLyrics' "Lyrics editor" to synchronize the lyrics, and then copy&paste it to files properties' Lyrics field, which, as you can imagine, isn't the most comfortable way of doing it. A plugin that can save me from this would be very welcome
