If this is really only about the search paths for libraries and add-ons we 
could as well add a simple feature to our runtime loader: From the 
executable file it could read attributes like BEOS:LIBRARY_PATH and 
BEOS:ADDON_PATH, which would override or extend the search paths. E.g. 
"%A:%A/components:%P" for prepending the application dir and its 
"components" subdir to the path.
