I know the "tecnicism" (hell, I have written a pair of plugins and a pair of firefox extensions). But from the "features" point of view, is there something I can do sorely with a plugin? (I think about direct filesystem

linux repositories, whatever distro you choose, are great because of that: I don't trust $developerfoo or $startupbar, I just trust my distro packager. BTW: normally I don't care if I don't use the latest latest version
