Question: Does it have a DataStoreFactory? If so make it a plugin?  I
have not reviewed the code carefully but I expect:
- a DataStoreFactory that advertises the need for a parameters
- one of the parameters will be a Repository

As long as the main interfaces being used here are DataStoreFactory
and DataStore then it makes sense to call this a plugin. A plugin just
bolts on functionality to the core library; it does not have to be a
new format or anything.
