Sounds like an amazing system. 
Let me play devil's advocate though.

Is the benefit worth the effort?

*Maintain plugins as a community. That may really address the crux of the matter. But that's the hardest one to deal with as it depends on those pesky humans. Perhaps this is more about putting them into a common version control system e.g. darcs, freshmeat, sourceforge.


Following this line of thinking... I wonder if there are any opensource multi-project management systems that have a clean enough user interface for "normal users" to easily find plugin projects? With something like that, each plugin could be treated as a mini-project. However, an existing tool would have to be *very* close to what we want or adjusting it will be more work than rolling our own....
