Plugin name conflicts go unreported #474

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
When adding a custom plugin with the same name as one already found by the 
default plugin manager, the system plugin is used without any warning to the 
user.

In the attached file, I implement a plugin named "Skip" that skips when 
"MySkipTest" is raised.  Since "Skip" is a built-in plugin already, raising 
"MySkipTest" causes an exception.  When the plugin is renamed to "MySkip", 
everything works fine.

Possible solution: either warn the user when a plugin conflict is detected, or 
prefer plugins added with ``addplugins``.
