Paul, --- You don't need to put the xml file in a qrc file. Instead you can add the plugin as follows:
ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN( ParaReader_GUIPlugin "1.0" GUI_RESOURCE_FILES Client.xml ) --- This did the trick! Not sure why the qrc didn't work (I have other filters that use the qrc file with no problems), but the reader is being registered now and working (nearly) as expected. I can at least get down to finishing it off now!

Instead you can add the plugin as follows: ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN( ParaReader_GUIPlugin "1.0" GUI_RESOURCE_FILES Client.xml ) Also, in the xml file you don't want to dot in the ".mesh" for the extensions attribute.
