I'm just playing around with the idea. I call it out-sourcing.
I think having the settings as plugin would be very beneficial regarding the bin size. I also think that there is no real point having the settings in the core (correct me if there's a good reason).
Note: With settings I purely mean the settings menu which can be accessed by the main menu and other screens.
I think it should be feasible and it seems like a logical step to me. Although it's just an idea, I didn't think too much about cons, I'm sure there cons which I didn't think of yet.
