You could try, "all shared" option in build setup, but then you will need fake main package. "all shared" should create all packages as .so (except main) and then you should be able to use the single .so as the plugin.

I'll try that, see how far I get.

What is the purpose to having this plugin architecture?

I'm writing an app to provide many services extending a {base/'kernel'} set of data & functions, with some of these
services mutually exclusive with respect to each other, and also allowing/enabling different other services. To
provide the services as plug-in's rather than a all-in-one-big-blob-app makes more sense and easier to develop
and maintain.
