 Replying to [comment:12 filosofo]:
 > But you're thinking as someone who knows the difference between core and
 plugin functionality, when most users probably don't.  They want to set
 the options for their spam filter; it doesn't matter if it's a plugin.  In
 other words, the admin menu should reflect the logic of the user
 experience, not the internal mechanics.

 No, I don't think that is the case. A customer knows that they have just
 installed a plugin. They are there enabling the plugin, and will continue
 to be aware they are using a plugin.

 How does Firefox do this? The way I described. The alternative of an ad
 hoc, potentially long list of options seems like no solution at all.
