well unless challenge() has a nice abstraction of
the scribbling on setBody and friends :-)

which reason should drive a plugin to not allow
other plugins? How should it know following
plugins would just set some headers and are
actually required?
So user have to know and arrange all friendly
plugins to be called before the 1 - setting one?
And if they want to combine several plugins
which each return 1 for some reason the auther
finds apropriate? I expect a lot of headaches
when people try to work this out :)
