Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing plugin creation API and the rows import/export paths, then compare how plugins currently provide import and export behavior. Done means the plugin contract is clearly defined so rows handles lazy importing and plugins only provide the required data generators.

Description

docs help wanted plugin

Create a better API for writing plugins, taking into consideration that the library will try to do the most it can so the only plugin's job will be to import/export data (rows will automatically deal with importing data in a lazy way or not, for example -- the plugin should only provide a generator on the import function).
