Some plugins lack proper ubufox integration (Was: confusing plugin

Bug description:
To provide proper integration with ubufox,
1. plugins that use update-alternatives mechanism should also put a
link for their binary in
/usr/share/ubufox/plugins/
and touch all /usr/lib/firefox-3.*/.autoreg that exist in .postinst.
2. All plugins should have a Description and Filename header added to
the binary package control, like gnash:
Xb-Npp-Description: The GNU SWF Player (http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/)
Xb-Npp-File: libgnashplugin.so
--------
When encountering a java plugin Firefox offers a confusing dialog:
it gives two options:
1. "GCJ Web Browser Plugin"
2. "The GCJ Web Browser Plugin"
the second options supposedly uses openjdk.
No descriptions are given whatsoever.
