There is certainly argument about the value of this package and it
breaks nsplugin/SELinux functionality.
A confined nsplugin is a nice feature for confining plugins downloaded
from the network. But if you run openoffice and evince from within
nsplugin they get confined, causing the apps to not work properly.
Looks like it's required by the java plugin (as well as some others,
but the java one is the one most likely to be installed by default.)
