I think there is probably little practical difference between a "default
author", and a "bundle maintainer". But I guess using the latter has less
potential for accidentally plagiarize somebody else's plugin.
This could still be shown in the plugin help, simply by including something
like "This plugin is part of the collection XYZ. Click here for more info."
Anyway, I guess for now that means that we should support the same <about>-
semantics for both the .pluginmap, and for each individual plugin.

Ouch. No, of course not. Translate that to
<onetag>
<anotherone/>
</onetag>

Certainly possible in theory, but I'm not quite sure how easily it can be
done. I guess the first step might be to put the testing framework into an R
package of its own (e.g. "rkwardtests"), so it can be loaded more easily,
independent of the current working directory. Would you like to give that a
try, next?
