I suggest you go re-read the archives before asserting this is a simple
no-thought-required fix. If it were, it'd have been done before.
The killer problem as I recall it is how to identify the plugin rmgrs
to use, bearing in mind that you can't rely on looking at the catalogs.
We don't have a design for that, and I don't want one that's been thrown
together under intense schedule pressure.
