I'd rather use the GPL than something like, say, the BSD license. However, it 
does mean that it might not be so easy for propreitary plugins to be made.

So perhaps most of the core program can be under the GPL, and if you want to 
encoourage people to produce propreitary plugins, or whatever, to license 
that respective part of the program under the LGPL.
