Do you want to require plugins to live in one specific "startup" directory that
has user permissions to read/write/exec? If so, then I think the
"startup/disabled"
directory idea is adequate.
On the other hand, if you want Pd to search the standard paths for plugins
then the "startup/disabled" idea is incompatible with that, no? Permission
problems
abide, plus when you want to re-enable a plugin how does Pd know which directory
it previously lived in?
