Comment (by lkraav):

 scribu, your plugin doesn't handle the actual load order does it? if i
 need to do

 {{{
 class MyClass extends SomeUpstreamClass
 }}}

 but my plugin is alphabetically in front of SomeUpstreamPlugin, then
 SomeUpstreamClass won't exist.

 Something called [https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/plugin-organizer/
 Plugin Organizer] is out there, but it seems too bloated for this simple
 task.

 So it seems comment:7 is the best approach today, albeit requiring
 cooperation from SomeUpstreamPlugin?
