All excellent questions.  As Matt said, we don't know yet.

Yes, a service-provider interface is common.  I would be surprised if we get something that covers all desired extensibility points in the first release. I would think ENGINE is the most likely first one.  Yes, this means that adding new algorithms, etc., might become harder or even not possible without source code, at first. But that is just my opinion and maybe I'll be proven wrong.

What extensibility points are most needed?
