Loading them is one thing, but enabling is completely another.

I think they should automatically be enumerated when they are found,
queried for text / description / a graphic even? to present to the user,
but enabling must be via config file / API.

Btw.. look how Firefox does "Add-ons", compiz does plugins etc..
