[theme-reviewers] Plugin Review (Yes, meant for the Theme Review List)

All,

I am more worried that I will submit my plugin and have some glaring security/implementation issue in my code.  While plugin users may be able to notice functional bugs I am not sure they will notice implementation/security/coding errors.   I know when I was working on/submitting my theme I learned a TON from the review process and I would hate to submit something that had errors.

I know that it takes some resource (time*person) for official reviewing staff and process for plugins, but I think that creating a mailing list for developer enthusiasts is also a good option if possible and approved by the core people.
