It could be useful to have a plugins-main branch which contains most
of the plugins, all which don't pull in large desktop applications,
and then spin those which do into their own such as Banshee and
Evolution. Then have a plugins-all which is of course all of them.
This way you could address the bug reports about people who for
example don't want to install evolution just to use the basic plugins,
while still making everything fairly straightforward.

In fact you could ship all by default and just tell people who don't
want to pull in those apps to uninstall -all and install -main, if you
wanted to maintain current behavior while allowing more customization.

Just a thought :)
