Previously, when I installed a plugin, I could set up mappings to that plugin's 
functionality by putting commands in ~/vimfiles/after/plugin/someplugin_maps.vim

Now with packages, this no longer works, because loading plugins is done as 
with ":runtime! plugin/**/*.vim" BEFORE loading packages.

This is somewhat counter-intuitive because the ~/vimfiles/after directory DOES 
come after the package plugin directories.

What's the best practice now? I tried using an after/plugin directory in a 
plugin folder within a package, but although the after directory gets added to 
the runtime path, stuff in the after/plugin directory won't get sourced.

I'm not fond of adding a VimEnter autocmd for this, since that prevents me from 
easily installing/uninstalling plugins by simply removing their directory (and 
maybe an "override" directory).

The best I can come up with is adding a new 
pluginname_overrides/plugin/pluginname_maps.vim in the same package as the 
plugin itself. Then by virtue of sort order it will always get sourced after 
the plugin itself.

Is there a better way?
