Summary0010497: A server-side-only reader plugin should not be required to load on client for it to work.
DescriptionIf a reader is only REQUIRED_ON_SERVER, the client should already have the file extension needed for the gui if it is specified with the <Hints> tag in the reader server manager xml. So we don't really need the clientConf.xml when calling ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN to tell the gui the file extension, and we should not have to load the reader on the client if it is only REQUIRED_ON_SERVER.

BTW, it will be really nice if this could be fixed before 3.8 release since I need to deliver a reader plugin to a customer based on 3.8 release. This is the selfish reason that I labeled this with "major high" :).

This is already true. If you specify <Hints /> in the XML for a reader, you only need to load that plugin on the server side.
