I don't know how complex your actual template is, but how about that:
- Just use one marker - maybe ###PLUGIN_TOTAL####
- use a COA and tricky TS to fill the marker:
------
subparts.plugin_total = COA
subparts.plugin_total {
	10 = plugin.tx_plug_pi2
	stdWrap {
		innerWrap = <div id="second">|</div>
		prepend = COA
		prepend {
			10 < plugin.tx_plug_pi1
			wrap = <div id="first">|</div>
		}
	}
}
------

should do the trick :)
