Correct, as long as those can/will implement a certain interface we need to design then, because there are adjustments in the backend needed to support such a plugin (e.g a global "lock the complete backend" command must be supported). Please note, that this implementation should work with other backends but might be even more imperformant than it will be for the filesystem based backend (e.g. for a database driven backend).
