Form a security POV, I think this is really quite dangerous... actually tendency should go towards the direction that users install plugins addons only via the package management system.
These plug-in systems which come with their own "package/installation management" are IMHO also quite bad from a philosophical POV... I mean they try to replace the traditional package management system, which is there and superior for very good reasons. Of course this doesn't mean that I wouldn't see the problem you face with keeping that stuff running and security supported. Cheers, Chris.
