Sorting by author doesn't make much sense for me but showing the author
for each plugin directly in a list is a good idea. As long as author is
shown in the list, you can always use the search function in the web
browser to find plugins from the same author even though they aren't
sorted by author.

I think I would prefer to sort the plugins by name, this is also how
the current plugin pages on the wiki is sorted. This makes it easy to
find a plugin if you know the name of it.

As already suggested, some kind of categorization might be suitable.
Personally I don't like the categorization we have on the wiki today,
almost everything is under the "Audio" section and the stuff that isn't
is sometimes a bit hard to find. However, as long as it is possible to
select if you like to see the list "by name" or "by category" it might
be nice with some kind of categorization.
The problem with categorization is to figure out the best categories.
It might be easier if a plugin can be assigned to several categories
but this might also result in more complex solution.
