There are several benefits in handling resource sharing in a common way, some of them are obvious (avoid code duplication and make maintenance easier) some of them are less obvious such as the fact that some resources are much more useful when shared together with other resources, for example data might be much more useful when shared with their styles/symbols or with a plugin to browse them in some fancy way, we decided to call those sets of related resources "collections". I believe that this plugin is now really a Resource Sharing plugin instead of a "Symbology Sharing plugin" as it was initially planned and we should seriously consider to make it core and to eventually move all the other sharing systems such as plugin manager and processing downloader into this new system, after the missing functionality will be added. The current plugin architecture should be flexible enough to allow for sharing new resource types and new remote repository source types if in the future we will need to.
