Comment (by GaryJ):

 +1 to Helen's / JJJ's idea about using post extras / the_rest.

 The issue isn't where on the page (before, during, after element X) the
 plugin output gets displayed, but which hook / filter they try and attach
 to. Get that right, and supporting themes can display it wherever in their
 theme they want. No need for any `add_theme_support()`, since themes
 supporting it will be the ones calling `the_rest()`.

 We have the_title, the_content, and the_comments, so it only makes sense
 that there is the_rest / the_extras / the_tools / the_resources (or
 whatever else might be a suitable name) for each post too.
