Thanks. My first question was in fact the one that mattered more to me. (I just couldn't seem to stop myself from going on to the second.)
I also appreciated the comments by rchiavo and hardburn, who hit the crux of the matter pretty well: I confess to having been clueless about the mechanics of plugins, or how they would benefit from a design that says "load whatever exists in this path", and I should have just started with curiousity instead of criticism.
But your reply was the first one to give some clues about plugins (which are still somewhat mysterious to me), and I'm grateful for that.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
