Hello,
tl;dr - scroll down
I am working on a new plugin architecture that deals with some of the
shortcomings of the current state. My primary motivation is to be able
to use libpeas to load plugins, both C and non-C (Python!), as you might
have learned from other threads I started. However
I personally hope whatever the group decides to do with the plugins
doesn't involve requiring a rewrite of all of them, because we'll surely
lose plugins and supporters that way.
Concerning some of your perceived shortcomings:

Hi Thomas,
In general this looks like an improvement to the current method of
setting up plugins, except it continues to require the plugin .so file
to be dlloaded just to populate the plugin manager. That will run the
dll initialization code, and

Hi Thomas,

to be dlloaded just to populate the plugin manager. That will run the
dll initialization code, and may therefore break Geany. Have you
