Indeed, and I'm glad we chose the GPL3 on those grounds alone. "Derivative works" was confusing. "Works based on" is clear-cut, it's hard to argue plugins are not based on their host, even if they manage to not use the supplied headers.
(The reason behind the choice of the GPL at all is an entirely different discussion, but I don't think it's really been a problem.)
