Hi, this is my first post to the list.

I really like the idea of adding a plugin icon, however, I don't know if
we should use the plain package icon, I mean, we can use it as a base,
but we should do something to make the user know that it's something
that adds/changes features in his app, and not make them confused about
what's the difference between a plugin and a app (you know, I needed to
explain the difference to my dad for like ten minutes or so).
Therefor think a puzzle piece (such as the one firefox uses) would be
more appropiate
