We have a few approaches to address the uninstallation of a plugin when it's actively being used:

Fully restrict uninstallation while the plugin is in use.
Allow uninstallation, but display an alert informing users that it may impact the services utilizing the plugin. (If feasible, we can disable related service operations if the plugin is not installed.)
Automatically remove any dependent services when the plugin is uninstalled.

Note: For now, we’ll proceed with option 1, which is to fully restrict uninstallation.
