This is tangential to the subject at hand.

-1; that would add unnecessary classes to memory.

However it could be stand-alone.

Though I'm not sure how much work it would save compared with the
effort of creating and maintaining it. That sounds like a good 3rd
party project; it seems OT for JMeter.

JMeter only knows what classes the test plan cannot find.
Who is going to maintain the database of plugin locations and their classes?
Who is going to vet the plugins?

However it might be possible to improve the error messages that are
produced when test classes cannot be found.
