In the past we've tried to avoid that because we wanted some
consistency in the UI design. I don't know if it's time to give up
on that and reconsider dividing the commands into multiple repos,
or just ask that people participate in building this tool for our
users. I don't think it would be any more complicated to do the
work in the OSC repo and gain some minimal experience that could
let folks become cores than it would be to do the same work in a
repo where they are already core. The plugin APIs are relatively
stable so it's basically the same code.
