I don't see how they'd do that. In order to dlopen anything, we need a C API. 
QtDBus doesn't have one, so we'd have the plugin bypass all of our binding 
code and go straight to libdbus-1. That's duplication of code.

Unless we're talking about a plugin to the plugin. Then not only is that ugly, 
but also results in the same problem: where do we put this plugin code? In the 
qtdbus.git repository? Why should it contain QPA code?
