It seems to be extension dependent. If I remove libuds-plugin-pdf.so (the default PDF plugin) and rename my plugin to libuds-plugin-pdf.so and then open a renamed DjVu file (with .pdf extension), it will load just fine. Even when the mobipocket plugin is installed! It does not even ask the plugin whether the file format is supported.
I did some digging around in the uds executable (source code not available, unfortunately), and it seems to have a hardcoded map of extensions and plugins ( uds::PluginMgr::initialize_ext_table ).
The method uds::PluginMgr::create_document first calls uds::PluginMgr::get_plugin_path to check this map for one of the hardcoded extensions. Unknown extensions are handled by loading all plugins and checking them to see if the format is supported.
There may be something that goes wrong there.
