Wouldn't it be better to package Mozilla plugins in Fedora so that they are

rpm packages do not magically fix security issues. A vulnerability in
a plugin can be exploited by an attacker regardless how the plugin got
installed. (rpm or not).

That's not true. SElinux could be used to restrict what a certain plugin
could do when packages as rpm versus the SElinux properties of files in
a users home directory.
