No easy way at the moment.
What are you doing with these models anyway?
I am currently working on exposing API to help access plug-in models.
So, if your use case is reasonable and can be addressed in a relatively
simple manner at our end, we could provide a static method that creates an
IPluginModelBase given a location or something...

Hi Wassim,
thanks. I kind of suspected that that was the case. The drawback of
using the runtime layer is that it will not give me the IPluginModelBase
that I want (I'm generating a Buckminster component spec from the info
found in it). I can probably write some code that does this from a
BundleDescription as well but I'd be glad if I can avoid it. Any tips on
how to get hold of a IPluginModelBase?
Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
