Plugin system for creating and integrating custom operations?

Hey there,

Thanks for the great project! We are starting to use Chainsaw more and more.

Just wondering if there is any ideas on being able to create a custom operation and include it via a go plugin or maybe some sort of IPC system to make it language agnostic? This would be great to abstract things specific to a particular company, or just allow extension for things you have not had time to develop yet (given your time is precious and there is only so much you can do!).

It could also be a great way to "test the waters" on ideas before integrating new operations into Chainsaw itself.

Another idea could be to "import" operations from a different file, which just uses the script operation and some templating in it? Im thinking its something that can be reused with some minor config changes across many different tests and hide all the noisy implementation details to keep the actual Test files clean and DRY...
