[Paraview] Relocatable plugins on ParaView CVS for Mac?

Would it work to strip all the @executable_path's out, and fix the id of it, 
so you get something like this:

libLabReaderGUIPlugin.dylib:
        libLabReaderGUIPlugin.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current 
version 0.0.0)
        libpqComponents.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 
0.0.0)
        libpqCore.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
        libQtChart.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
        libQtTesting.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 
0.0.0)
        libpqWidgets.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 
0.0.0)
        QtAssistant.framework/Versions/4/QtAssistant (compatibility version 
4.3.0, current version 4.3.5)
  .. and so on.

With just library names, doesn't the Mac loader use the ones that are already 
loaded?
An exception to removing absolute paths might be if the plugin depends on 
something that paraview doesn't depend on.
