I mean: Where is that metadata?

I thought it was in the dll, and that we needed a function
to query that metadata.
  Obviously the metadata itself can't be accesed via CLSIDs
(else we would need metadata about the metadata).

..so the metadata must be accessed via a plain integer
index.

Are you suggesting the metadata should be external to the
dll?.  If so how do we handle wrappers that contain a
dynamic list of wrapped plugins?

I'm not quite following your train of thought...

Jeff
