Some (though not enough, I think) clarity at last.

Between this and way too many unproductive emails with Rob Linden, I
get the impression that closed source plugins will only be only be
allowed after 'negotiating' with Linden Lab...   I think this is a
massive strategic mistake on LL's part, but only time will tell.
