I agree that zip files are the logical choice of file format for calibre plugins, just as they are for most e-books. But just as e-books use a .epub file extension to distinguish them from other zip files, in retrospect it would have been better if calibre had used a .plugin extension for its plugin zip files. But at this point it isn’t worth the trouble to change that.
