At the moment, there is not. The only supported means for putting
drawers and items into the view are through the UI by the user or
through the plugin.xml. You'd want to open an enhancement request
for some means for doing so, and perhaps contribute a solution
implementing this ability. From the sounds of it, simply rescanning
the plug-in extensions wouldn't quite cover your case.

Were you thinking of snippet items that use a custom
ISnippetInsertion class? If so, the class loading story gets rather
complicated for your scenario.

it's all visible, so it means you *can*, but I'd still rather there
be an enhancement request opened for a real (read: friendlier and
supported) mechanism for doing so in a future release.
