--- Comment #44 from David Cook <dcook at prosentient.com.au> ---
Just one final note... if this does make it into Koha, it'll be one of the
first things I disable when upgrading to a new release. 

I think plugins are awesome but also dangerous when wielded by people without
enough knowledge. 

(For instance, EBSCO have made an authentication plugin, which was installed by
a librarian, and I discovered that it had a number of security vulnerabilities.
I've sent in pull requests to patch them, but I never would've installed that
plugin without reviewing it first. However, the librarian didn't even think to
verify the contents of the plugin.)
