You can use PlugIns without using the rest of ZPatterns, such as 
DataSkins and Racks. You still have to have the ZPatterns product 
installed, obviously. I can see this becoming even more useful when 
ZClasses work with PlugIns. This may be a while off, though.

I'm still in favour of splitting ZPatterns into separate DataSkins and 
PlugIns packages in the next feature release.
