But isn't the option of multiple presets, one of which is flagged or somehow 
marked as the default (perhaps 1st preset = default).

I'm new here, so I'm not clear on all the details but if the plugins are 
precompiled binaries, couldn't you hold the preset data in an array of 
constants and then have a standardised set of functions that the main program 
will use to access them, such as

Plugin_GetPresetCount();
Plugin_GetPreset(int ID_Num);
Plugin_GetDefault();

You would need to define a data structure to use as standard. However if you 
made the code inside the plugin give it meaning you could have unassigned 
arrays which the plugin author can allocate to store data.

Am I close or way off?
