I've experienced CFPlugins, and I've never figured out why they use a
COM-like system there. It adds a ton of complexity for no real benefit.

I can't speak for other platforms, but using COM on the Mac is not needed
when you have ObjC and its introspection capabilities. I don't see why a
framework wouldn't do.
