This has to be a per format type extension, for instance getting the Collada DOM instance for an opened .dae would be the way of extending it. One one need a callback mechanism too I guess, something along the lines of the present DotOsgWrapper. The .ive format itself needs to be replaced by an extensible binary .osg format.
