Yum plugin installonlyn packaging

This question is specifically about the installonlyn plugin,
but is also a question regarding yum plugin packaging in general.

Currently I see the installonlyn plugin included in the fedora 
yum-2.5 srpm, but was expecting to see it in the extras yum-utils, 
since I have seen other plugins within the yum-utils including 
changelog and fastestmirror.

Is placing installonlyn within yum just a one off, or are certain 
plugins going to make it into yum, while others are in yum-utils?
Currently it is a bit confusing, since I am expecting to look 
for plugins in yum-utils and would be more inclined to add a 
plugin to yum-utils, rather than yum.

cheers,
