in reply to Plug-in architectures

If you do this, then I would suggest making the plug-in architecture itself pluggable. :-)

Note that many people have implemented plug-in type structures where they store the code in a database table. The same can be done with dbms as well. Abigail has the amazing module described here which can be used to pull down plugins from the network.

I see nothing wrong with being able to mix and match at will...

(Not that I would see a need for this. My needs are met by existing solutions. I just think this would be kind of neat to see.)
