Would not be reasonable then, to join the "grep" plugins with the
second new type ("The ones that find things about the site")

I'm agree with Steve that finding URL's and crawling them could be an
other task for the split.

I think, we need to publish a complete plugin list and discuss their
classification. Probably, the same plugin could be dedicated to the
several groups.
