[wp-hackers] Feature Suggestion - OneClick Installs

[Francis Reyes]

Agreed! One of the sorest parts for me is how the plugin paths are  
fixed to wp-content/plugins.  Theme locations can be changed (by  
filtering theme_root and theme_root_uri) as well as upload paths, but  
the plugins are fixed into the WP installation.

Also, with regard to the Installer plugin, it should be part of the  
base WP. One gripe is the requirement that the plugins and themes be  
in the proper 'directory structure', which isn't always true and the  
plugin (at least when I used it two months ago) severely breaks if  
this is not the case (which is more often than I'd like with some  
themes).
