Plugin Manager Specification

The plugin manager allows plugins to be enabled/disabled.

The plugin manager allows plugins to be enabled or disabled. This is useful when Qtopia enters Safe Mode due to a misbehaving plugin and to selectively show/hide taskbar applets.

Use Cases

A user wants to disable applets to save space in the taskbar without removing them from the device.

After installing a new plugin, the Qtopia system enters Safe Mode. The user must be able to disable the new plugin and restart Qtopia.

A scientist wants to use only scientific calculator. He does not want to be bothered by the selection box. So he just removes the simple option from plugin manager.
