It is not very simple. However Netgraph/ng_socket.c does something similar.

net_add_domain is called from ngs_mod_event().

However, it is not possible to remove this module because the feature to 
remove a domain is missing.

        switch (event) {
        case MOD_LOAD:
                /* Register protocol domain */
                net_add_domain(&ngdomain);
                break;
        case MOD_UNLOAD:
                /* Insure there are no open netgraph sockets */
                if (!LIST_EMPTY(&ngsocklist)) {
                        error = EBUSY;
                        break;
                }

#ifdef NOTYET
                if ((LIST_EMPTY(&ngsocklist)) && (typestruct.refs == 0)) {
                /* Unregister protocol domain XXX can't do this yet.. */
                        if ((error = net_rm_domain(&ngdomain)) != 0)
                                break;
                } else
#endif
                        error = EBUSY;
                break;


I would be interested in this feature too ;-)
However there is no reference counter within the protosw structure, neither 
within the domain structure. It seems to be difficult to remove them.

Moreover, how can the domains, that require a "routing layer", be loaded ? 
rn_init is called only during the boot process in order to find the 
max_keylen = MAX(dom->dom_maxrtkey).
