With enough time to code, nothing is impossible but I am not sure that
is an optimal solution.
In fact, what a user want is to load a file; if we can use N different
libraries because that way we can cover more formats, that is good but
IMHO it should be done without user intervention.
I don't think I'm going to be impressed by a workflow like:
1. open file -> fail -> change library in menu -> goto 1
As Anders wrote, RS already HAS already implemented a plugin structure
for loader plugins, it is already implemented, and will be in the next
version of RS.
Loaders are internally prioritized, so if plugin A cannot decode the
image, it silently moves on to the next plugin in the list. It
actually works very nicely. There is no need for user intervention, as
fallback is silent. The only issue we are working at, is to avoid the
filesystem re-loading the image data for each plugin, but other than
that it, it works very nice.
