[development] RFC: Drupal pluggable systems

[Larry Garfield]

Recently I've been talking up various ideas for pluggable subsystems in Drupal 
in IRC and the other usual haunts. Ideas have been percolating in my head, 
but so far I have been remiss in actually writing them down. Yesterday, 
however, I had an epiphany to solve the primary issue I was trying to work 
out, so I present a hopefully workable RFC (for real, not IETF version) for 
pluggable subsystems in Drupal.

For the full write-up, please see:

In the interests of simplicity, *please* don't reply on the list.  Reply on 
the post above.  Thanks.

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of 
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, 
which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to 
himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession 
of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it."  -- Thomas
