Mike,

  I think, I have similar issue.

Mine local lookup plugins from playbook_dir/lookup_plugins are loaded and 
executed fine,  but the same manner implemented action plugins are not 
loaded from file like playbook_dir/action_plugins/action.py

Is there additional magic linked to library too ?   Is there way I can 
distribute local action plugin with playbook?
