I understand that, but I've had a few queries over installation
locations for my plugins from other people that suggest it causes
confusion. In the medium term that might be solved with a plugin manager
that avoids users having to probe the intimate areas of SqueezeCenter
folders themselves, but it might also help in the shorter term if the
internal one was just called something different that didn't suggest it
was for plugins.

At the very least a text file called "NOT_FOR_USER_PLUGINS.txt" or
similar might be a clue if it was also present in there (oh, I was
forgetting localisation...).

Just an idea - it would be one less thing to get confused over or for
support people to have to check for.
