I'm not sure I follow.

Continue doing it the old way, but also support alternative structures. Is that what your asking?
Sigil 1.0 will open epubs with the internal structure they were created with. The user then has an option to restructure an epub into Sigil's traditional structure if they so choose. Or they can continue to work on it as is.
Epubs that comply with Sigil's traditional structure (whether created that way, or converted into that structure) should have no issues with any existing plugins. But we'd love it if plugin devs upgraded their plugins (if necessary) to support working with alternatively structured epubs. Others will be willing to help if they run into trouble.
We're not currently offering any way for users to automatically have epubs that are being opened restructured into Sigil's traditional epub structure. That's a one-time menu option they will have to do manually on epubs with different structures after they've opened them.
