Who is the "we" that has a dependency? AFAIK, the only subproject that depends on Extras is Apps, because the applications use some of the optional classes. If for some reason you don't like "Extras", we could just call it "Optional", like Ant does. The problem is that we have a class called "PlugIn", and there are things besides PlugIn classes that are optional, like the ever growing number of dispatch actions :) Another likely suspect could be that nutty ValidatorActionForm class that confues everyone at first. If it were in Extras, it would be clear which we consider to be the default. I think calling the package PlugIns woudl be confusing unless it only contained PlugIns. And if that package only contained PlugIns, then we would need another package for the other optional classes.
