there is the kttsd command plugin that is allways here.

but if you are sure that the plugins won't be affected by installation=20
of e.g. epos, and a further removal, then it's fine, maybe I'll play=20
with suggests: fields and merge the kttsd and its 3 separate plugin=20
packages.

what does the other here think about it ?

well, they are not nonfree, maybe I should name the package=20
kttsd-contrib-plugins, but they rely on non free software to work, and=20
thus cannot be part of main.
