[Qgis-developer] Adding plugins to master

[Marco Lechner - FOSSGIS e.V.]

how about creating more dependencies to python-libs, ... by adding
plugins to core? I think this should be taken in focus of this
discussion. IMHO it's not good to add plugins to core that make it
necessary to install e.g. mysql with qgis.
