We have done good so far with letting these package specific policy
aspects in the hands of the maintainers. Therefore, I'd suggest you set up
some README.Debian file (or similar) which explains how other packages
should register plug-ins, etc., and ship this with the main gimp package.
(We've done the same with the emacs policy, for example.)
Of course, feel free to post questions to debian-policy about that if
there should be disagreements about certain parts of the `Debian gimp
policy'.
Thanks,
Chris
