I think it would be nice if there was a process in place to

important plugins for new users to explore.
Official plugins would ideally meet some higher quality standard and
unmaintained plugins whose functionally degrades as Leo changes could
lose "official" status.
I believe that this step is important in creating a friendly "default"
user experience for new users. I have expressed this before in a less
official manner but now that the idea of marketing Leo has come up I'd
like to get people's opinion in this context.

Interesting idea. I think the set of plugins enabled by default in
leoSettings.leo covers a good set of features:
contextmenu.py
leo_to_html.py
mod_scripting.py
nav_qt.py
quicksearch.py
stickynotes.py
todo.py
viewrendered.py
In that list, I'd swap viewrendered with viewrendered2, and also add:
bookmarks.py
valuespace.py
word_count.py
node_diff.py
python_terminal.py
Those last two are my plugins, so I'm a bit biased... but I think they
offer valuable features.
In general, none of the above plugins do anything that would be
deprecated as Leo grows, unless it switches GUI libraries again! They're
also all pretty well maintained, or else feature stable.
