Or, Kovid DOES change Calibre to not support the anti-DRM plugins.... someone else will immediately fork Calibre and undo the change, and after that, merge in Calibre's updates. Then you'll have the 'official' Calibre without anti-DRM support (which no one uses), and the one 'unofficial public secret' one that does.

Open source software that's on a roll can't be stopped, literally.
I just want to know how you'd block the DeDRM plugin without removing plugin support.
