Okay, I downloaded VortexBox and had a quick play, and looked at the MinimServer setup script too.
I didn't know about the :9790 interface that MinimServer exposes - the plugin could integrate (display) that too.

The VortexBox user experience is similar in that the user clicks the install button to install MinimServer, but I see that it differs for MinimServer in that it opens the MinimServer download web page directly and then passes the URL back to a script to download and install it automatically.
A plugin for OMV couldn't directly replicate the VortexBox method of forcing the user to click themselves before installation progresses, I guess the closest thing would be to show something similar post-installation: OMV plugins (normally) install services in a disabled state, so that the user must enable the service from the web GUI before it runs (e.g. install the minidlna plugin, then go to the DLNA service settings page, it is disabled/not running). Therefore, a MinimServer plugin settings page could display a 'first run' page that would be the MinimServer donate-popup page. Users would click Trial/donate/no donate before the plugin settings page would load allowing them to enable it.
