I have a Symbian based mobile phone, and I went to quite an extent to be able to install whatever I want in it instead of just what they approve, the client shouldn't be locked to only accept what is in LL's approved plugin repository, if I want to install somthing a friend made just for the two of us, or somthing that is made by someone that LL doesn't trust, or someone that doesn't trust LL, I should be allowed to without hassle.
