They can be imported from "twisted.plugins".  For example, if you name your

foo_plugins" should work and let you test any code that is part of your
plugin definitions. Note that you should try to keep the amount of code and
dependencies in a dropin file to a minimum, since this must all be loaded
and executed whenever a search for any plugin is performed.

Shouldn't twisted and twisted/plugins be non-importable? I thought twisted and
twisted/plugins must not have __init__.py files in order for the plugin
system to be able to find them (through getPlugins). Or did that behavior
change in recent versions?

They must not have __init__.py files, indeed.  However, the files in
twisted/plugins/ still define sub-modules of the twisted.plugins package
due to the code in Twisted's twisted/plugins/__init__.py.
