Add the possibility of extending the core IPlug2 classes like IGraphics or IControl without changing the IPlug2 source code.

I am considering a similar system for selecting the IGraphics drawing class.

Could you please be a bit more specific? I've managed to do just this perfectly fine via inheritance. What do you mean specifically?

I believe @asedev is asking for a way to add new graphics backends without modifying core includes such as in IGraphicsSelect.h. Such a thing could be possible with a factory function approach. For now all I can recommend is that you just fork iPlug2

IControl should just be inherited from, since changing it dramatically would break lots of people's plug-ins.
