Currently, this is the list of plugins when RabbitMQ starts:

  rabbitmq_recent_history_exchange
  rabbitmq_management_agent
  cowlib
  cowboy
  rabbitmq_web_dispatch
  amqp_client
  rabbitmq_management
  rabbitmq_mqtt
  rabbitmq_web_mqtt
  rabbitmq_amqp1_0
  rabbitmq_stomp
  sockjs
  rabbitmq_web_stomp
  rabbitmq_tracing
  rabbitmq_trust_store
  rabbitmq_consistent_hash_exchange
  rabbitmq_web_mqtt_examples
  rabbitmq_top
  rabbitmq_auth_backend_ldap
  rabbitmq_federation
  rabbitmq_shovel
  rabbitmq_shovel_management
  rabbitmq_auth_mechanism_ssl
  rabbitmq_sharding
  rabbitmq_jms_topic_exchange
  rabbitmq_event_exchange
  rabbitmq_federation_management
  rabbitmq_web_stomp_examples

sockjs, cowboy, cowlib should not be present in this list. All applications that do not depend on rabbit should be removed from this list.

This new requirement should be communicated clearly in the release notes as well as on the plugins development documentation. Probably even a mail on rabbitmq-users@.

I believe many third-party plugins do not depend on rabbit in their Makefile or $plugin.app because it was not possible a year ago, probably less (ie. before the release build was fixed to get rid of the broker depending on its plugins). So if third-party plugin developers do not modify their plugin, they won't be listed anymore.
