Yes

Yes, that is how it should work and did until lately.
Plugins changed with r5036.
I have the same problems with older version from josm.openstreetmap.de

That is the part that is broken within josm as it downloads to
~/$DHome/plugins but still is using only /usr/share/josm/plugins.

Yes, but I have a separate start script for josm-latest and set the
preference path to ~/.josm-latest.

I also did delete ~/.josm before testing, e.g. clean start.

Probably updating to r5045 will solve the problem for plugins which are
not in the josm-plugins package.
