I think that it is a great idea to have a downloadable edition free of any propietary software. This is the goal of the Mandrake downloadable edition - and they have succeeded at doing so.
I do agree that it would be convenient to have those plugins though, so maybe they should have a program that downloads and installs the most common plugins for you, and place an icon for it on the desktop. Having a nicely marked place in the distro called "Download browser plugins" or something to that effect would be nice.

Why do you want proprietary plugins?
