Thanks Robin, while this is of course entirely viable and not
unreasonable, unfortunately I see two problems: besides the code,
there are also differences in the data describing the plugin that
would need to be put inside conditionals, and that is not as handily
concentrated into one line as is the case with the code.

And to be quite honest, smart adhoc solutions like these create
exactly the kind of source code that I don't want to have to maintain.
:D

Cheers, Tim
