I'm not talking about "cloaking" in the sense of fooling google where content is hosted
what I meant was altering the code of the script enough to remove obvious evidence of the script you are using
just as an example, with the smarthumbs thing, the backlink to smarthumbs and the filename of the main script files are a dead giveaway, with wordpress the "powered by wordpress" backlink, etc etc...
it also would have the advantage of thwarting spammers that search for scripts to attack or spam based on searchable signatures of the scripts they are looking for
