I am like, totally pro :-)

Not really a compiler feature, but how about making lookups (and maybe
other plugin like features) into real .so objects, to be loaded with
dlopen() and linked with dlsym()?
When I started (and stopped) adding a new lookup earlier this year, I
quickly realized it would be more work than I expected, with changes
needed in multiple places in the code and the build system.
