My current way to go is to create two update sites.

One with the repository from the export of the product.
And a second one that contains all features/plugins that are not part of 
the product but are selectable by the user as enhancement of the program...

Though haven't had much time working on this lately..
there still seem to be problems... like stuff is shown when searching 
for extensions that I don't want to be shown there (some mysterious 
launcher  that if selected creates an eclipse.exe in the directory of 
the program)... but I am going to solve that soon hopefully...
