Does this really need any kind of thunar plugin anyway?  I mean, with
desktop actions, you can just register "Add to archive", "Create
archive", "Extract to", etc. in the .desktop file, which will just
appear in thunar's context menu for tar/bz2/gz/zip/etc. files.

Though I suppose you want "Add to archive" and "Create archive" to show
up in the context menu for all files and directories.  Not sure how that
works in the desktop action framework.
