Title:
  Add ~/.local/share/software-center/plugins to the default search dir
  for plugins

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  When developing a plugin for software-center it becomes useful if the
  plugins could also be loaded from some location in the user's $HOME
  dir, so you don't need root access just to try-out a plugin. It would
  be cool if you could add ~/.local/share/software-center/plugins to
  enums.SOFTWARE_CENTER_PLUGIN_DIR

  And for bonus points think about searching in all
  xdg.BaseDirectory.xdg_data_dirs ;)

  Thanks
  Markus
