A /usr/lib/zypp/plugins/commit/*susemanager* plugin must not be part of Salt. In this respect, I agree with the original reporter. However, a generic /usr/lib/zypp/plugins/commit/*salt_notifier*, together with a respective 'yum' notifier (for Fedora/RHEL, 'apt' will follow later) might be part of Salt or a separate package. IMHO, we should keep the 'salt' package as clean and as close to upstream as possible.
