Because the majority of my plugin code uses 32 and 64 bit floats and I
dont want to have to provide integer equivalents for platforms that don't
support them, or be (source or binary) incompatible with a random subset
of target platforms.

This is perhaps jumping ahead to topic 3, but what if made a requirement
that the cross-platform "wrappers" in the source code be broken out into
classes of floating point systems vs. integer systems vs. fixed point
systems.  That way a vendor such as yourself could write a plugin that was
source-code compatible with any platform that supported floats, but not
others.
