That sounds reasonable to me: if upstream has a clear commitment to
publish only free software plugin, then we can take their word for it;
if later that proved to be misguided, we can revisit this issue and
disable the installation of plugins coming from their site.

Indeed, it’d be much nicer if users of JOSM on Guix could install
plugins via Guix, both because it’s more convenient and because it’s
provides much stronger guarantees (reproducibly built from source!).

My 2¢,
