Exactly! Scaling is one of the the biggest problems with modern (especially
Open Source) GUI design. Stuff gets written to accommodate the author's
immediate needs and what happens when the data (in this case plugins) explodes
in number. EVERY gui developer (casual or not) should be required to
read Tufte's design books before being allowed to code.
Perhaps this is something that we should talk about at LWE.
