At the moment it's not possible in a neat way, but sometime we could add
a function like:
gboolean plugins_lookup_symbol(const gchar *plugin_name, const gchar
*symbol_name, gpointer *symbol);

It would be similar to g_module_symbol but return FALSE if plugin_name
is not active. Something for another time perhaps.

What would that do, save a copy of the current document to the file
browser path? I'm not keen on that really.
