This would need to be done across all recipes where such choice is 
supported, as a 'preferred crypto engine' distro feature. There's been 
talk of doing this, but I don't remember what was the outcome.

Also, the plugin needs to be ported to 1.1 first, as the choice will 
otherwise be taken away when 1.0 goes EOL.
