Note that plugins themselves are shared libraries; it wouldn't take much to extend the plugin API to include a function to allow plugins themselves to load other shared libraries, as long as they do so before trying to look at (or use) the plugin buffer.

But plugins load at a fixed address, which you couldn't do with these shared libraries if you if you would try to load them into a dynamic address. So it would require a more sofisticated loader.
