I think plugins should assume db, auth, crud, mail, service.
Don't you do the same with your code? A plugin is nothing more than a
means to package and distribute your code.

I think the plugin should assume db. I do not see a problem with
people editing the plugin anyway.
That could be a way to customize it.
I do not exclude a more specialized plugin that assume more and/or
something different.
