[GNC] loading custom F::Q module from GNC

Is there a simpler way, by way of possibly configuration specification, from
GNC to utilize a privately developed F::Q module for pricing without
modifying any of the official underlying release code for F::Q?

 

>From reading F::Q documentation, it mentions that I can pass the privately
developed module to the Finance::Quote->new() call but that assumes that I
am instantiating in a script or something similar and have control over the
declaration which I do not for GNC. 

 

I am hoping for something simple like put a single Perl .pm module file into
a directory, add/append some option setting in a GNC configuration file or
command line which makes it available under ‘type of quote source’ à
‘Unknown’ in the ‘Edit Security’ window to select, and then get called when
‘Get Quotes’ is pressed from ‘Price Database’.
