Hm, that would be a very general solution and not specialized for
loaders, that's what makes it attractive. It might be a problem for
people that have many plugins and don't necessarily want to load all of
them at startup time and would like something more demand-driven.
But your approach is probably easier to implement, the only question is
how to identify plugins. Just loading all dll/so's seems a little rough.
Maybe just calling them 'libOSGPlug*' is enough.

P.S.: You don't have to use dlopen/LoadLib, OSG::SharedLibrary can take
care of that. ;)
