I think you're both overthinking this - we can just include a page in
the wiki, plus a forum thread on the SF forums tutorial section, that
should be enough for any plugin or feature in general.

I intend to write short tutorials for my graph-based plugins, too.

In fact it might be a good idea to write a short tutorial about every
new feature in 1.0.0, and then gather all of them together - kind of
like a crash course on all the new features of 1.0.0. Even things that
don't need a tutorial can be added there, just to notify people that
this thing is possible now.
