Being pondered where? I haven't seen anything except brief mentions that one would be cool.
This is something I'm interested in working on (when I have the spare time that is).
I've actually been working on integrating MDB2_Schema to get to the point that a plugin just needs it's own schema.xml and it'll automatically get the database structure that it needs. This should also help roundcube in general. I've currently got it working mostly with mysql. I was hoping to send out an email tonight asking some people who are using postgres/etc. to run a few tests for me.

Steve,
The plugin architecture is on the roadmap for 0.3, and the basic requirements for it are currently being pondered by myself and Brennan.

It would be a great feature to be able to write a plugin and almost literally drop it in with out having to edit major files which will be overwritten in the next release. on the forums there was mention of a word-press like plugin system (I vote for the widgets =) which would be an excellent way of managing them.
This would open the doors for a plugin community to fill those 'not so popular' needs that would be considered bloat in the main trunk, so users can select which bloat they want.
