Something like this in a chrome.manifest:

override chrome://mozapps/content/plugins/pluginInstallerWizard.xul chrome://gnuset/content/plugins/pluginInstallerWizard.xul
override chrome://mozapps/content/plugins/pluginInstallerDatasource.js chrome://gnuset/content/plugins/pluginInstallerDatasource.js
override chrome://mozapps/locale/plugins/plugins.properties chrome://gnuset/locale/plugins/plugins.properties
override chrome://global/content/plugins.html chrome://gnuset/content/plugins.html


... so I guess

override file:///usr/share/mozilla/something/localstart.html about:

might work.
