Well, let's say that it makes it a bit easier if the code is at least
split in separate directories (even if a library is not required for that).
As for the lower overhead, it does make a difference if the file plug-ins

In order to improve the support for metadata (XMP and EXIF), I would
like to move some of the code that is currently located in the
plug-ins/metadata directory into a new library, libgimpmetadata.
This library would be linked with all file plug-ins that support
metadata. This includes JPEG, PNG,
