The policy management stuff is pretty well documented at:
	http://www.tcl.tk/software/plugin/

However, with the current v3 plugin, it is actually a bit harder to configure
the special files.  In order to make it easy to deploy, I am using stardlls,
with everything embedded into the dll.  You can crack these open just like any
starkit, but not modify it at runtime.

I may well have to move to a multi-file distribution again, with the core in
the stardll, and a tcl/ subdirectory in the plugins/ folder that has the
plugin3.0 package.  That way users can more easily manage plugin policies and
config files.

Let's take this discussion to the tclplugin-core mailing list. It is possible,
but the "best way" is not yet decided.
