Let's wait for Marco's additions to composer (as mentioned by him on
kcube dev wiki page).

This was actually historically the first qgis python plugin ever
written :-) I have ported it from c++ to Python just to see whether
the bindings and plugin infrastructure work correctly.

I don't know what to do with the whole bunch of simple "decoration"
plugins: maybe their functionality could be best ported directly into
qgis application and we would (maybe) save some time during the qgis
startup since we will avoid loading of few modules.
