Open Stack

As far as I know this feature is planned for the next releases.

But I think the main problem is: it's not obvious that just by 
installing a plugin, even without enabling the plugin in Fuel user could 
break or somehow alter already existing environments.  It could be done 
by malicious attacker who could compromise plugin or just 
unintentionally with some bug in the plugin code.

Unfortunately, by installing some plugin a user jeopardizes his existing 
environments. And I think we should at least document these risks.
