Can ClickOnce manifests point to a folder of files?

Hi all,
I'm currently working on an application with a plug-in architecture, and
want to be able to deploy the application and plug-ins seperately and have
them update a ClickOnce manifest on a customer's server whenever a plug-in is
installed. I've noticed that manifest always have to detail every DLL being
used, which means it has to be rebuilt and signed with my certificate.
Is there any way to use ClickOnce in such a way that I don't have to ship
my certificate with the application so I can rebuild a manifest when a
plug-in is added? Or should I look at a different deployment technology for
this?

Cheers,
Neil Pickup
