"Should", not "must".

In any case, once you've scripted some particular piece of functionality, 
the application should allow you to discover the existence of that 
script. Does the application have a "Scripts" or "Plugins" menu (or 
equivalent)? Or do you have to rummage around in the file system, looking 
for secret scripts in undocumented locations?
