Go's plugin package seem to be a little like an "unloved child" in the Go community. And it is not (yet?) ready for Windows. Windows is not my problem but it might lock out quite some users. And it interferes with Go's sore feature of platform independence.

Apart from that I don't see the benefit. The RAA package is mandatory in the current theragile exe. You cannot run threagile -raa-plugin "". It simply fails with plugin.Open(""): realpath failed. So what's the point in making RAA being a plugin if it must be there in the end. It would be much simpler with the default static linking of Go.
