But that breaks the idea we currently have that each subdir in plugins 
*is* a plugin.
Don't be fooled by dockers/ in there, even if more goes in there it still 
is one plugin.  Having a shapes dir with various subdirs that are plugins 
breaks this structure and over complicates things in the long run. For 
example because in contrary to what we thought when I created the shaped 
dir, one plugin-dir can actually hold both shapes and some other kind of 
plugin.
So grouping on kind is going to be awkward sooner or later.

I think having a somewhat larger plugins dir makes sense for various 
reasons; one of them being translations. With the new structure you can 
have one Messages.sh that collects the info from all plugins into several 
(or one) .po files.

Oh, and I suggest we remove the video shape; its quite unfinished and 
doesn't work (nor can it work). If someone wants to pick it up again, he 
is free to get it from svn.
