Interest in Matlab plugin loader

Just throwing this out there, but is anyone interested in a plugin loader for Matlab? I'm thinking something along the lines of the frei0r plugin, but able to support a wider variety of video formats, particularly higher bitdepths like 16-bit and floating point. Matlab code would need to be compiled obviously, and bumps the barrier to entry way up ($5,000 for a commercial license), so it's pretty much limited to academic and commercial use.

Why not to use octave instead of Matlab? I've been comparing them for closed loop control systems design (both discrete and continuous) and I found, at the end of the day, very few differences. Another project, known as scilab, should even be able to execute matlab programs (afair).

OT: I've always been fascinated about the possibility to implement a closed-loop control system with GStreamer, but never had time. Maybe after retirement ;)...

Re: Interest in Matlab plugin loader

It would be great to use Octave, however there doesn't appear to be a compiler for Octave scripts. One could use liboctave directly, but what I'm thinking about is allowing non-programmers the ability to create processing elements from a Matlab (or Octave) language.
