Package: cinnamon

Hi.

For the same (security) reasons discussed in #660311, cinnamon shouldn't
as well install any browser plugins per default into the user's browsers
when these could lead to untrusted code (i.e. not from the Debian archive)
being installed.

The proper solution IMHO, would be to put that plugin into a separate
package, that cinnamon Suggests.


Cheers,
Chris.

PS: Yeah I know that the GNOME (deb) maintainers ignore the request away,
but I guess this is like GNOME vs. Cinnamon - force vs. freedom, so I guess
you don't have to follow their example ;-)
