The solution is good, surely. But if you has in mind really third-part
addons, we can run in some trouble if I change the Setup behaviour (new
functions, etc) and it still has to face with some old .fun located in
the addon.
Maybe, it is better if Setup call 2-3 standard scripts located in the
addon: bin/prolog, bin/prepare and bin/configure, for example. The
drawback is that this scripts can't share 'intelligence' and common
code with Setup, but the advantage is that they become independent
from Setup.
