Making vim script auto-installable

Hi folks,

it's such pain to install plugins from vim.org , because every plugin
use its own way to distribute..... and vim.org
doesn't provide any API for application to retrieve structural data..
like JSON...

I'm here because I wrote Vimana vim script manager , which detects
plugin content to decide how to install automatically

http://github.com/c9s/Vimana

but it's not very reliable because there are only 'plugin', 'color
scheme', 'utility', 'syntax' ... in the script type field of plugin on
vim.org.
it's hard to detect specific script content. but most mainstream
plugin could be installed by Vimana.

Here is a way to make script auto-installable from Vimana.
