The need to use plugins is obvious, and I agree that the current package
is incomplete in this sense.

We are currently addressing this upstream by implementing a plugin
downloader/installer similar to e. g., the browsers. Once this is
completed plugins will be available without being packaged.

For this reason I don't plan to package any plugins for Debian but
rather make them available in the new installer.

That said, this will take some time and if someone steps up and packages
plugins it would of course be nice.

Also, most plugins are possible to rebuild from source and be used that
way.
