The point is, you don't know what clients might want to use it.  It
happens to not do what you want in Pidgin, that's fine.

This is a valid concern, and something that should be discussed.  Note
also that plugins can be included but not installed by default, and
that packagers can choose which plugins to bundle in the main package
and which plugins to bundle separately.  Keep in mind, however, that
most of those plugins are there because *someone wanted them*, that
someone was typically a developer, and their preferences outweigh, in
general, some hypothetical user who might be confused or overwhelmed.
