How about:

Windows: %AppData%/cura/plugins

Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/cura/plugins

Linux: ~/.cura/plugins

What do you think? I could do a PR unless there's a philosophical objection.

    I have no issues with that. I would suggest that only "user" plugins are placed there (eg; Not plugins that are defaults, as we tend to update them).

    We would also need a way to handle conflicts (what happens if translate tool is put in plugins folder)

    Ah. You're right. They do work. I attempted on Windows first and it didn't work (probably because I got the path wrong), but now I was debugging on Mac and yep, it's already in the _plugin_locations. So, never mind.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
