Sam, bug #1544670 [1], as I wrote and read it, is a frontend-facing UX ticket, and technology-wise it's about an API design. The plugins I list are just examples.
All these examples are only possible to implement after, first, UX has made and approved their UI+UX design, and second, Canonical has taken a decision to start the implementation and document the API for us developers. Afterwards everyone is free to do some hacking, or file bug reports as supportive action or preparation for the actual implementation. You're welcome to do so now already, of course - at the price of reworking them later. The first must-have plugin would have to be the mandatory emergency calling. That's all there is about this ticket. In the end you're right. Everything in this ticket that points to discussions about a "Circle design" should be moved to a new "Circle design plugin" ticket. Or the API design could be moved to a separate ticket, and this one rewritten specifically to a "plugin request". I'd prefer to see authoritative comments from Canonical on this topic first, though.
