I can understand how a developer could see it that way.. "If you don't
want the plugin, don't put it in the plugins folder."  Maybe Adobe
didn't used to add the plugins to the seamonkey plugins folder?  In
any case, it'd be nice if SM honored the minimum required plugin
version I've got configured in user.js

or remember to delete the .dlls added to the seamonkey plugins
directory or remember to start SM & click on tools / addon manager /
plugins and disable the plugins again.  I'd rather not have to
remember that when I update some software package I also have to
re-configure SM.

Thanks,
Lee
