Is the intention to keep both pages continuously updated?

I wonder if there ought to be a 3 super-category structure here:

1.  Those plugins maintained as part of the distribution.
2.  Those plugins maintained separate to the distribution but core to
Bazaar.
3.  Those plugins contributed by whoever.

1 & 2 are most likely maintained by core Bazaar development people.
Certainly these should be listed explictly on both pages.

3 is a prime candidate for a wiki page that is edited by whoever
whenever.  It could even be called the Bazaar Plugins Bazaar.  None of
the plugins in this super-category need listing explicitly in the two
pages.

Clearly there can be movement from 1 <-> 2 <-> 3.
