A complete SDK might be not something the SM devs like to offer, but what about a small interface to native (C, C++, whatever) coding?
A primitive which lets you define the number of inputs and outputs (stream and float), path to a external .dll to load and it creates a standard C/C++ header file that can be used with a C-compiler. And of course a generic .dll to link with.
This way it's probably easier to protect SM from crashes caused be external coding.

Couldn't that be implemented with a new set of code commands? So that can interact directly with other parts of the code?

Sure, but that'll be more work for the guys.
My idea was to find something simple so they have less excuses to not implement it 😈

SM to host plugins? SM used to host entire VSTs, until someone figured out you can wrap a commercial VSTs, reskin it, then sell it as your own.

Nope, my intentions were 1. stream audio to/from disk and 2. let 2 SM plug-ins communicate via TCP/IP. And a gazillion more possibilities.
