As has been agreed all plugins are to be renamed so that they conform

Currently we say:
org.apache.forrest.plugin.NAME-input
org.apache.forrest.plugin.NAME-output
org.apache.forrest.plugin.NAME-internal
Wouldn't it make more sense as:
org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.NAME
org.apache.forrest.plugin.output.NAME
org.apache.forrest.plugin.internal.NAME
I agree. Actually, i had already wondered that when last
we spoke about the naming convention, but i just assumed
that there was a reason for the former.

WHY do we want to include input/... in the naming?
Because we can have an input and an output of the same format. For
example, OpenOffice has an input and there is an Output in whiteboard
(which doesn't work yet, but one day it will).
