Updated proposal, taking into account the default export. Instead of
adding a second call, I made a couple of changes to list_exports:
(1) If the plugin has a concept of a default export, it should add it
as the first element in the exports list.
(2) There is a new default_only flag which tells the plugin that the
client is trying to request the name of the default export, so the
plugin may return only a single element. However it's fine for
plugins to ignore this flag.
What about plugins that don't have any concept of a default export?
This makes the default export be whatever happens to be first in the
list. Not sure if this is a bad thing or not.
Rich.
