1) I support Simon/Roy’s request, it seems straightforward. 2) Roy M, it would be good to get that discussion topic in a ticket, so we can continue it there. But, I should warn you, I also went through that argument about 12 years ago, and I can vouch that the CF metadata community has been consistent over that time. I can’t remember the precise motivation, but basically it is almost never the preferred model. (But at least one time, when the observed thing was a taxonomic entity, I believe it was agreed to adopt a plug-in approach.) Perhaps now that SWEET is becoming a more actively managed resource, and once CSDMS is more in the public realm, these may serve as patterns (and vocabulary sources) for using plug-ins in other semantic models.
