Drupal uses a similar architecture as Trac where there is a core and a set of plugins (they called them modules). One really useful thing they do is have a base install bundle. There are only a few required modules in that core (and I believe many of the nonessential ones are disabled by default), but having the bundled package adds a really nice feature set right from the start. And it is very easy to enable the module and get the right mix of desired functionality. It would be nice to see a similar thing happen with Trac. Yes, there are a lot of plugins available, but there are definitely some that are widely useful and requested. These could be included in the install package, and possibly disabled by default, but easy to enable and add functionality.
