If for some reason a plugin won't activate, there has to be a reason. Right now, the reason isn't visible to a user/developer, so we have to guess what's wrong.

• wrong plugin file name
• wrong plugin class name
• execution error in plugin class

It would in fact be a great feature, if Craft reads the craft/plugins/ folder on every Settings → Plugins visit, and lists all folders which do not belong to a plugin.

That's the only possible user error in the plugin installation process. For everything else I think the plugin developer should be responsible.
