<pre>Old-WebKit includes [[NSBundle mainBundle] builtInPlugInsPath] in the search path for plugins, but WebKit2 on Mac does not. For applications that bundle custom plug-ins, it would be really nice if WebKit2 could include [[NSBundle mainBundle] builtInPlugInsPath] when loading plugins so that WKWebView can display custom plugin content. Our application [1] uses this functionality in old-WebKit, as does Mail.app and possibly others.
Currently PluginInfoStore::pluginsDirectories() only searches:
[NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Library/Internet Plug-Ins"]
"/Library/Internet Plug-Ins"
An alternate solution would be to expose API for adding additional plugin search paths.
