Yes, and it is the best solution if we choose the plugins to be developed 
inside koffice repository. Because so far we have failed to correctly disable 
the unfinished plugins from our releases, if everything is in a single 
directory I can easily mark it to be removed from the release (the same way I 
currently remove kivio and f-office).

I also agree we would need guidelines at the same time, some are obvious (like 
saving/loading for shapes, or no crash at creation/display...).

An alternative solution would be to start a extensions,koffice.org website, 
using the same infrastructure as extensions.krita.org. This would give 
visibility to the external plugins (no matter where they are hosted), it 
currently include a build dashboard. However, it would require me to finish the 
website generation (currently it only have the compilation dashboard), and it 
requires people to follow the dashboard.
