I'm neither for it nor against it, but I do think devoting the energies of even five staff people to turning out these plug-ins when the product has just been placed on the market will inevitably give rise to the question, "Did you just hold this content back from the final code to make more money?" It seems as though Bethsoft is seeking a way to turn what the player modding community has done for free over the last four years to their personal monetary advantage--and that strikes me as rather cynical.

EDIT: I should add that I will not be buying any of these official plug-ins. Bethsoft already has my money for the game, and that should be enough for them.
