So the design is for every platform to try to load all plugins. We don't
even want to have a hint that allows the website to say "this is

How about from the browser perspective? Is failure to load a library a fatal
error? ("Sorry, we can't load this extension because it is damaged") Or is
it expected, since we're just likely hitting a library for a different
platform?
