The plugin manager is a completely new implementation for the g2 port. Jan Peterson started the g2 port and implemented the plugin manager. I don't know what his reasoning was, but AFAICT the plugin manager is a graphical/gui thing and the component manager is a engine/notification thing. (I.E. To get notifications when a account/split/whatever is created/deleted/modified.) For example (and I'm making this up off the top of my head thought it may be the real implementation), the stock commodity editor would use a plugin to install its one menu item, and it would use a component to detect any stock additions/deletions so it could immediately update an open display window.
