Emacs has a similar issue (at least in Debian).  Do you enable
tex-site for *all* users, or just for the ones that call

  (require 'tex-site)

?  I'd want to try to find an approach that makes it easy to make
add-ons available, but also provides some way the user can turn them
on/off for themselves.  This "turning-on/off" should be at a high
enough level so that turning it off means most of the modules code
isn't even loaded.  Once you get a large number of modules, especially
if you have some large ones, even the load times can become a
significant expense.
