Node.js is different than loading in the browser in that you don't work
with globals like you do in the browser (or at least not as much).
So to accomplish what you are after, one way would be to have the plugins
return a function so that you can pass in the original which will be
modified.
For instance you pass in your namespace in the function after you require
and it would be able to add itself that way.
var obj = { };
require('foo')(obj); // foo.js can add properties to obj
So you just have to have foo.js return a function (which takes as a
parameter the namespace object you want to modify)
Hope that helps.
