Do you really think that it's a good idea to use a loader in this manner ?

yes. the idea is to make 3rd party plugins integrate seamlessly into Gem.

What is the possibility of nameclashes here ?

obviously it's there. e.g. there is a frei0r plugin called "multiply", which could be accessed as [pix_multiply]. since [pix_multiply] is already built into Gem, you will never get the frei0r plugin this way, you have to explicitely use [pix_frei0r multiply]

(btw, [pix_frei0r multiply] won't do either, simply because this plugin is a mixer, which is currently unsupported by Gem's frei0r implementation)
