I think we should compile all the plugin in (but not enable all by default), at least for now, to make MariaDB as easy to use as possible.
On the opposite, I think you should compile them all out. But preinstall them, that is add necessary lines to mysql.plugin table from mysql_install_db. The user experience will be pretty much the same as if everything was compiled in, but one would be able to uninstall plugins easily, if needed.
We considered this earlier. It'd work for new installs, but not for existing ones so they'd have them all disabled until manually added.
That's not too different from other changes in system tables. mysql_fix_privilege_tables is generally recommended after an upgrade anyway.
