I was referring to having the option to have any language compatiable with WSH compatiable with plus. I think it should be kept to just javascript (or a select set of languages).
The idea that you could include the DLLs in the script and then register them during installation is even more ridiculous, there would be a ton of redundancy as every PHP script would include an extra DLL, or not every script would include the DLL and people would complain that a certain script doesn't work
Then when you come to installation, it's again, another thing to potentially go wrong. Especially for people who don't know much about computers (which is probably the majority of plus's users) and don't understand why a script wont work because they don't have a WSH plugin.
Right now, things "just work" and I don't think you should mess with that.
