Jason; We have been talking at length about what we think is wrong with the plugin model in this thread. I'm happy to hear that you have solved things within the existing model in Takari. From what I've picked up It sounds like you have made an even greater monotlith than what we already have, so it appears you may not consider this whole issue a problem.
The solutions you describe are things we know about. I still consider this to be an important problem; maybe the most important problem we are facing.
