(Get the code!)
I have pushed the code to launchpad (at least I think I have, I've only used git/github before this).
It is currently very simple (and values are hard-coded in).
I agree that it should be tied to profiles or something of the sort, perhaps being able to configure different profiles for different triggers.
The 'architecture' that I have currently implemented is just to allow some plugins to begin at the start of a terminal. So I suppose the answer to your first two questions is 'it depends on what plugin the user is running'. The plugin I uploaded only searched for text that is output, though it could certainly be possible to change it/add a new plugin that monitors input text.
Perhaps it should be embedded into the 'terminator preferences' window to allow easier integration into profiles? Though this may make it less extensible by plugins.
I haven't done anything to measure performance.
By the way, I'm a college student studying CS so I'm happy to hear any general feedback on my code!
