+1, auto loading is simple and if performance becomes an issue, an explicit list of hooks would solve this issue. I would however leave auto loading by default. We have a couple of hundred jar dependencies so speed for us is an issue but auto loading seems to me a decent default for beginners, better than failing on a missing implementation or other "strange" behaviours.
