There IS something to be said about getting an actual endorsement of a plugin from a subject matter expert like NiLuJe, as opposed to finding something on github using a keyword search, esp. now that we have reports of malware on github.
Even open source is not quite transparent to those of us who don't do lua, whereas I would be surprised if NiLuJe was capable of encountering a KOReader plugin without impulsively doing at least a cursory check.
(I suspect InkBox wouldn't allow the plugin to execute at all unless the dev got an explicit endorsement via a key. Though they do provide a built-in calc app, as NiMa modestly restrained himself from pointing out.) So chaotic freedom vs walled garden? Android vs iPhone all over again?
