Pipelight with multiplugin support (minimum version >= 0.2.0) allows you to enable/disable Silverlight (or any other plugin), such that for example each user can have its individual set of plugins.
.
The following commands are useful to change the system-wide configuration (for all users).
# Help including a list of supported plugins
pipelight-plugin --help
# Shows a list of all enabled plugins
sudo pipelight-plugin --list-enabled
# Enable/Disable some plugins (just an example, should be self-explanatory)
sudo pipelight-plugin --disable silverlight5.1
sudo pipelight-plugin --enable silverlight5.0
# Disable all plugins
sudo pipelight-plugin --disable-all
.
When you want to enable plugins individually for a specific user, just run instead (WITHOUT sudo!):
pipelight-plugin --list-enabled
pipelight-plugin --disable silverlight5.1
pipelight-plugin --enable silverlight5.0
...
.

Please note: When multiple versions of the same plugin are enabled, the browser might choose the wrong version in some cases. At least in Chromium/
