I wanted to bring back to discussion to the list because originally
the thread ended in a discussion about licence, but there was no
discussion about the UI / usability of plugins in the GNOME
applications.

I've just open a bug concerning Evolution regarding the way plugins
are handled. (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=496839)

As more and more application comes with their plugin infrastructure,
it would be nice to have a great solution :)

Thank you
