Or perhaps a hook that specifies which plugins to check in? Depending  
on the app one list could be much shorter than the other and getting  
engines to ignore plugins that should never be checked would be great  
imho.

Nice suggestion Trevor.

That would be great. I haven’t looked at any of the engine plugin’s  
internals. If my itch gets itchy enough I’ll take a look at implementing  
that.
