Hi Max, She has already done that. The point is to add the plugins in the default Pharo VM, so everyone can use the VM profiler. We would like to have the VM profiler loadable through the Pharo catalog, but many people won't be able to use it if the default Pharo VM does not support it...
The plugin is lightweight, so I don't see why we can't have it.
