Whoops, sorry.

It works for me in an outdated version that I'm still using for a  
client ... but it doesn't seem to work with the current trunk (which  
is, IMO, correct).

Yes, I think this is true.

They once tried to change it, but ran into issues with plugins that  
rely on their classes not being auto-reloaded and thus invented  
Dependencies.load_once_paths. See Rick's post on this: 
http://weblog.techno-weenie.net/2007/1/26/understanding-the-rails-plugin-initialization-process

I strongly believe that this is the wrong approach to it though, as it  
leads to all kinds of weird side-effects. A better approach to it  
would be to whitelist those plugins that don't want to be auto- 
reloaded but auto-reload everything else. (Actually there's even a  
config.load_once_paths feature that would allow to do this.)
