Michael,
my comments are embedded in your latest document (pink color).
in summary:
   - no switch names or switch existence should be specified in the standard
   - no priority should be defined between bootstrap files and straight 
shared library files names
   - In the part1 document you write:
"The SystemVerilog application should only load object code within a shared 
library that is referenced by the SystemVerilog code or by registration 
functions; loading of additional functions included within a shared library 
should be avoided, because they might interfere with other parts."
     while using dlopen to dynamically load a shared library, dlopen will 
load any other
     libraries on which your shared library depends on. There is a mode 
where you
     can pass to dlopen to delay external symbol resolution when they are used.
     but I don't think this should be specified by the standard.
- you also write that a share library should only be loaded once.
   How is this going to checked? Why such a requirement?
Francoise
