Well, I don't know who Bob Smith is (I notice the nick from #gnumeric), but 
he sent a message on September 2 or 3 titled "Plugin System" with a 3kb 
attachment called "plugins.txt". In plugins.txt, he says things like:
1. When a plugin is removed, remove it via an idle handler.
3. Do as much as possible through idle callbacks. The plugin system should 
stay out of everyone's way.
2. Add directory. State becomes PROCESSING. Idle callback to update 
metadata.
3. Remove directory. State becomes PROCESSING. Remove metadata. Idle 
callback to unload relevent plugins.
7. Add Discovery object. State becomes PROCESSING. The Discovery object is 
handed the current directory list and an idle callback is set for it to 
update itself.
