Yes, we have that code. I think 4.8 has it.
But that defeats the purpose of not needing to inspect the files before
attempting to load them. Between having the data next to the plugin as opposed
to inside the plugin, I'd rather have it next to them.
In any case: for loading of modules (QLibrary), there's nothing to be
inspected.
It's only for the plugin mechanism that we need something better.
