The hurdle here for OSC is making a way for plugins to extend existing
commands, in a way that doesn't lend itself to untrusted code slipping in
and subverting things.  Right now we blindly trust entry points to Do The
Right Thing for new commands, modifying existing commands I think requires
a higher bar for trust.

Building a purge for the APIs handled in the OSC repo is straightforward,
it'll look a lot like the quota commands for example.  Extending that to
plugins is not quite so simple.

I created the OSC session Etherpad[0] to start tracking these topic
suggestions.
