Hi, I've noticed that the python scripts are always initialized even if they don't have any metrics collected. In most cases this isn't too bad (assuming module_init doesn't do anything too invasive) but for example tcpconn.py starts a thread running netstat that will keep running even if nobody cares about the data.
One solution is to rename the .py files but this will not play well for people using packages since they will be readded in the next package update. Having a different package per plugin so they can be removed/added individually is also an option if no other way to disable a plugin is available.
