I shouldn't write emails first thing in the morning...
UI should be IU and means Installable Unit.
Plugins don't need this suffix.
Features do.
Google knows all, I was able to find the link I couldn't remember, see
http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/guide/p2_director.html
"-installIU: a comma separated list of IUs to install. Each entry in
the list is in the form <id> [ '/' <version> ]. If you are looking to
install a feature, the identifier of the feature has to be suffixed
with ".feature.group"."
