In my setup, I've settled for using defer instead of async for that reason : at least I get a predictable loading order. It's even actually more efficient to do it that way (this article has some great explanations : https://flaviocopes.com/javascript-async-defer/#tldr-tell-me-whats-the-best)
When using defer, plugins will be loaded before and can be discovered easily. In the case of the jQuery plugin, you will have registered anyway a $.fn.filepond namespace, that you can use to declare the plugins as well.
And if everything is bundled together, load order is also predictable.
So, to summarize : with defer or bundles, you will have a predictable load order that removes the necessity to manually registering the plugins.
What do you think?

I did initially set it up like that. But when using async script tags this gets a lot harder.
Ideally, I would like the plugins and the core to find each other without polluting the global scope, so plugins fire a pluginloaded event and filepond fires a filepondloaded event ( both on the root element of the document ), then plugins can automatically register by listening to the filepondloaded event and filepond can automatically register plugins by listening for pluginloaded events. Problem is, you don't know if all plugins have loaded because there's no information on how many need to register.
So while this works when putting the script tags after the filepond tag it only does when all code is loaded in synchronously.
I'm all ears for a possible solution, but that's the reason why plugins are registered manually because then it doesn't matter and it's up to the dev to make sure everything is loaded before registering.

What a clear and concise article, love it.
I think using defer is a great approach, will see if I can add this in the near future. registerPlugin
would still be useful for devs loading async or using the modules ( without global scope pollution ).

Added this to the roadmap so will close for now.
