> IRC discussion about it:
> {code}
> 09:29:39] <@bcall> why do we want plugins to register?
> [09:30:06] <@jpeach> afaik historically it's always been a requirement
> [09:30:30] <@bcall> I don't think so
> [09:30:33] <@jpeach> imho there should be a way for plugin to fail at
> startup
> [09:30:53] <@jpeach> if register does nothing useful then we should just
> remove it
> [09:31:46] <@bcall> it was used for API version checking from what I
> remember
> [09:31:52] <@jpeach> but registration creates internal info that could be
> used for something interesting
> [09:31:54] <@bcall> and I never did it in my plugins
> [09:32:18] <@sudheerv> fwiw, i think i didn't either ;)
> [09:32:52] <@jpeach> heh
> [09:32:54] <@bcall> it is helpful for 3rd party plugins - vender, email, etc
> [09:33:13] <@bcall> and api version checking
> [09:33:14] <@jpeach> that information never goes anywhere
> [09:33:20] <@bcall> I can see the merit of the version checking
> [09:33:21] <@jpeach> the version checking does nothing
> [09:33:28] <@bcall> even better :)
> [09:33:40] <@jpeach> sounds like you should nuke it for 6.0
> [09:34:09] <@bcall> I will file a bug
> {code}
