I am ambivalent about plugins: on the one hand I don't care too much, and I 
value an rich set of plugins as much as the next person, on the other hand, 
being GPL hasn't prevented the Gimp from gaining many plugins. On the 
gripping hand again, I want to read the code of cool plugins and learn from 
it...
