I agree with you. Results mast be in one place.
In Proxy after plugin is executed we can simply show message about results.
For example after XSS plugin finished we show message (may be alert) that xss 
is found in foo param.
It's enough for context. Other information user can watch in KB Browser in main 
window.

There is another way. Now in "Results/KB Browser" we can only watch results 
grouped by type of message. 
We can also show in "History" tab (Request/Response Navigator) more info about 
plugin-source of request/response 
and result of its work.
Example:
In Request/Response viewer:
Request tab: GET 
http://localhost/w3af/audit/xss/simple_xss.php?text=<SCrIPT>alert("IqT70xSgLlRW4cKEiLU1Sh")</SCrIPT>
 HTTP/1.1
Response tab: 
...
Start--
<SCrIPT>alert("IqT70xSgLlRW4cKEiLU1Sh")</SCrIPT>--End
</html>
...
Initiator tab: XSS plugin
Result tab: Cross Site Scripting was found at ...

In History tab we will add 2 new columns: 
 - Initiator (text column)
 - Result (icon column)

This way will give more suitable ability to show results to user.
