Public bug reported:
It would be useful to have a generic plugin type that provides all the
benefits of every plugin type (i.e. lang strings, templates, cron jobs,
config screens, config table, etc), while not having any specific
functionality tied to it. This would be useful for:
1. Encouraging encapsulation of core code, especially for components
that are mostly standalone, like the new "chat" functionality.
2. Third-party distributed code that doesn't match any of the existing
plugin types. (Although really, we should just have a "local" plugin
type for these.)
