----------------------------------------
Could you provide some more details on the desired API, e.g. pseudo-code that
illustrates its intended usage and the required methods?

> This is a followup request for MNG-4041.
> PluginManager and Plugin cache should allow safe release of plugin realms,
> that is, ability for embedding application, like Eclipse or Netbeans, to
> determine if any given plugin realm is currently being used and remove unused
> realms from PluginCache in a thread-safe manner.
> I see at least two cases when it is not safe to release a plugin realm
> * Regular plugin realm during mojo execution.
> * Extensions plugin realm for as long as the referencing project(s) are in
> the reactor or otherwise known to the embedding application.
