  comment:         calling 'objectName list' will overwrite the instance variable $plugin
                   with the last entry in the returned list

                   e.g if a pattern is specified that returns multiple plugins, the last
                   one will be asssigned to $plugin.  This means a subsequent call to
                   'objectName plugin' can return the wrong name.

                   This seems to be a result of using plugin for the capture variable in
                   the list method:

                   foreach p [$sip eval {package names}] {  if {![regexp $pattern $p ->
                   plugin]} continue  lappend result $plugin  }
