Not answering you main question, but depending on exactly what you envision
for 'plugins', you might be interested in the Ethos library

  http://git.dronelabs.com/ethos/about/
  http://docs.dronelabs.com/ethos/

I wrote my own plugin code for a gtk app, only to discover this  library 
did 99% of what I wanted :-)

Daniel
