Yes, the feed plugin was written pre-new architecture (component-based with tests)... It'll need to be redesigned/rewritten at some points to align it. This rewrite is not planned by any current committer so this will take a while (unless someone volunteers to do it) so I think it's safe to fix it here and there if needed for the moment.
