Dear Hannes, At the moment, it's not possible to change a plugin's directory name (package_name) even through the administration page.
This feature was previously requested with a PR, but it was closed due to potential client-side issues. When the package_name changes, QGIS may recognize the plugin as a new one, leading to possible installation errors. You can find the related PR and a more detailed discussion about it at https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Django/pull/271. However, we are open to new ideas and suggestions on this matter. I can also re-check the feature to have an updated detail about it.
