ashb opened a new issue #9498:
URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues/9498
In Airflow 2.0 we should remove the ability to add operators and hooks via
plugins.
I think we should deprecate adding Operators and Hooks via the Airflow
plugin mechanism.
I think plugins should be reserved for any mechanism that a plain-ol python
module import won't work for (which is basically anything that needs to tie
deeply in to the Webserver or Scheduler process).
To that end I think we should deprecate adding operators via plugins:
```python
from airflow.operators.my_plugin import MyOperator
```
can become
```python
from my_plugin import MyOperator
```
with no impact on functionality.
For this not to be a hard/sudden breaking change we should issue a
deprecation warning for this in 1.10.12 Issue goes here)
