I don't see any need for pkg_resources entry points, especially since calibre doesn't currently use setuptools or pkg_resources (though its dependencies might).
Furthermore, calibre is still not in site-packages (we would need to figure out a way to get upstream tinycss/odfpy to not be broken, and fork templite properly I suppose. css_selectors is custom code that could I suppose be turned into a generic library. polyglot can be phased out)
IMO it should be entirely sufficient to have calibre pick up plugins first, from e.g. /usr/share/calibre/plugins/
As for whether people would package plugins... I might update my current fanficfare CLI package to provide a calibre plugin too. Perhaps I'd package other plugins too, but not DeDRM software.
