Hi,

Yes, we understand that it can be interesting to split each plug-in and to have 
one package for one applet but we (the upstream) discourage to do that. Some 
plug-ins are needed to launch some other one (e.g.: DBus and all externals 
applets, Gnome applet, etc.).
It's just like Compiz: there is a core package and its library and theres are a 
lot of plug-ins. Of course you can uninstall some plug-ins but it's highly not 
recommended because some plug-ins are needed by some other one... And there is 
no packages for each plug-in... It's just what the upstream want to have :)
And if the user want to absolutely remove a few plug-ins he can also do it with 
a 'rm' command... But just like splitting each plug-in in a lot of packages, we 
don't recommend to do that :-/
