Have another. I've been toying with a something that modifies rewrite
rules. It doesn't have to be a whole lot of code.

Depends. How many people will install plugins that need it? Probably
not. If the API is sufficient, it probably won't change.

It sounds to me like you have the beginnings of a great plugin
toolkit. Any plugin distro could include the toolkit or just say it's
required and provide the URL. You'd have to create a spec for
dependent plugin authors, that's all.
