Looks like I am losing this argument (I still very much prefer "extension" over "plugin"). But at least the terminology should be consistent. If we keep the name "plugin" then install.html should be changed accordingly.

Here's another problem with the page - it doesn't ask for username and password. This results in a success message on the page, where in fact the plugin doesn't get installed properly.

Steps:

1. Make sure that the jsbeautifier plugin is not installed on orionhub.org and then log out from orionhub.org.
2. Go to http://jsbeautifier.org/orion
3. Click the link, note that there is no password prompt
4. Click the button, everything looks good
5. Click on the link to manage extensions, you will be asked for username/password and the jsbeautifier plugin won't be in the list of installed plugins.
6. Do steps 2-4 again now that you are logged in. It will work this time.

For 0.2 I think we're sticking with plugins. I've made the necessary changes to the install page and had John review and watch a very exciting live demo of the wording changes.
