I'd like to see LADSPA 2.0 plugins always being directories, wether we go
for bundles or not. It gives the plugin somewhere to stash its auxilarry
data (precompiled tables etc.), which otherwise is a bit of a pain.
It's possible to retrofit bundles to 2.x by reserving the lib/ directory
inside the plugin directory for future use in 2.0.
zeroinstall, http://0install.net/ uses something similar to bundles at it
works well on linux.
