You've referred to this a few times now without explaining exactly
what you expect the developer to do. So, just in case:

I presume you mean that, in the case where a program's plugins are not
compatible with plugins for previous versions of the same program, the
developer should always seek (and attempt to install) plugins for
version N in a differently-named directory from plugins for version M
and version P.

That is, that a directory expected to contain plugins for version N
should contain *only* plugins for version N, and never for other
versions.

Yes?
