a) Plugin returns Jobs, and they're executed with start.

b) I thought I have to rewrite code, and not just to reimplement 
*Job::start()

By shell mode I mean usage cmdinterface instead of API. mattr asced me 
to use another words to describe it. I use Job, so it sould be clearer.
So, I will reimplement start in cvslpugin style. Andreas, thanks.
