Plugin change #1

Hi,

First of all this is just a question, I have no problem or issue. I am just wondering why you removed the plugin functionality, I thought it worked quite well? Is there something I could change that would have made it more suitable to your needs? Perhaps some documentation on how it works is needed?

Oh hey there =) Main reason was for build purposes; I converted the ant script to Maven, but didn't get around to converting the build system and repackaging for plugins (think I'd have to use subprojects?). Merging everything into one monolithic jar was just more expedient for my purposes.

Note however much of the plugin infrastructure is still there, in fact I added a couple new plugins. Just the on-disk plugin loader is replaced with command-line switches to enable/disable the built-in plugins.
