No, it's not a rule.  Every once in a while there are package name rule
discussions (my personal "favorite" is perennial java-FOO discussion),
but, AFAIK, there have never been rules for plugins, etc.

When I added swh-plugins to Extras, I just used the name from CCRMA.  If
I were to do it from scratch, I think maybe I would have used
swh-ladspa, or something like that.   But I don't think it matters
enough to change now.
