Also, if you're about to turn in into embedded flash thing, what if I don't
have flash? And with my experience using flash in webkit stuff (not like
Chrome etc), it crashes a lot. So if flash would crash, would it crash
text-ui as well? Watch out for that.

As for the rest - it's ok, maybe you might want to focus more on particular
implementation in text-ui when talking about "how to do a plugin system".
