I would also enforce a naming format for plugins. When I knocked
together AboutPlugins the majority of my time was taken in handling
the non-conventional naming of some of the plugins. 

This can graphically be seen in, e.g.. InfoViewer in jEdit 2.2.1, or
the Help->About menu on 2.3pre3. Some of the installed plugins are
just ignored and don't appear on the list. For example, JavaInsight.

Enforcing a naming convention will make life easier in the future..
