If the plugin does not use the configuration tab in the Plugin Manager,
you can tag the plugin as a so-called "system" plugin in its .eplug file
as follows:

    <e-plugin ... system_plugin="true">

The plugin will be loaded and enabled, but not shown in the Plugin
Manager so there will be no way to disable it.
