I've been wanting to discuss this particular aspect of the proposal, just waited for the page to settle down. I believe that while we can suggest a plugin-naming scheme, the exact solution used is up to the wiki engine developer. It's very similar situation to how the page names in links and image names are treated -- the existing engines have such a wide range of working solutions that it would be impossible to come up with one that everyone agrees on.
Besides, the domain-like notiation is unnecessarily elaborate for something that is in common everyday use. It's ok for things like DTD that are usually copy-pasted or included in ready-made templates. It's ok for programming languages -- especially when you make some aliases to them anyways. But it'd be unacceptable to write about that {{{<<unaffiliated.radomir.dopieralski.macro.latex source="$x_2$">>}}} symbol as referenced in {{{<<unaffiliated.radomir.dopieralski.macro.latex source="$x_2+y=c$">>}}} formula using these elaborate names.
I say that leaving the plugin-naming conventions to the wiki engine has even more sense that for page names and images -- because these extensions cannot be moved between wikis anyways, so we really don't need any interoperability inside the box.
