Berkelium should support plugins, but currently that support is limited to Flash (supported on all platforms). Development effort is not focused on supporting additional plugins because standards based approaches are preferred and Flash support covers a large fraction applications that require plugins. For the curious with some spare time, it may be possible to use a hooked HDC on Windows, and to use the X11 Composite extension to render plugins to OpenGL on Linux. However, we suspect enabling arbitrary plugins and programs in this way would take a good month of work to get right.
