Actually GnuCash has a full plugin system in place. The current 
functionality is already split into different modules.

I'm not sure if it's suitable in its current form for the kind of 
extensions you are thinking of though. And it's not well documented and 
over the years the boundaries between the different plugins may have 
watered down a bit.
