We are unix. ;-)

What you want is a "distribution". A preconfigured package with all
plugins/add-ons combined.

This doesn't necessarily mean that everything has to be integrated into
VDR.

(Just like a Linux distribution is a precompiled/preconfigured bunch of
many different "plugins" and "add-ons" to the Linux-kernel ;-)  )

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as 
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, 
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
