I cannot understand why Massimo's plugin idea appears so contentious.

Perhaps the only problem is that the smaller details of his
implementation are in his head rather than written down. However,  in
the best traditions of agile programming,  he has released his concept
as software which can be tried and tested. What is the point of
pretending that we are working as a huge team of programmers who feel
compelled to specify their entire day before they can eat breakfast?

IMO there is little harm in adding a model, controller and views to an
app,  providing they are named as per the convention and thus can
easily be removed again.

If people are confusing the presence of a few extra files in their
directories as spaghetti code,  they are surely mistaken.  There is no
reason to have all the files in one directory if there is an install
and uninstall procedure.  For example,  if all models, including those
of the plugin, can be found in one place, then surely that's
beneficial.

I vote that we should embrace Massimo's idea and encourage him.
