There wasn't a Flash plugin default installation dir (or to be honest default installation is the directory mozilla chooses when installing packages from within mozilla itself, like for instance new themes, new locales, etc.). In the past, maybe the "privileged" directory could be considered. /plugins, but now netscape is dead (see "RIP Netscape" section in http://www.mozilla.org/status/2003-07-18.html), so IMHO /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins is the right place.
