-------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
 This proposed patch to qgis.utils modifies the plugin loading to allow
 users to define additional plugin path locations (for example shared
 plugin folders).  It allows these paths to be defined by a QGIS_PYTHONPATH
 environment variable, which can hold multiple paths separated by a
 semicolon.  In each path it will look for a plugins folder, and in that
 each folder containing an __init__.py* will be treated as a plugin module.
