Not particularly feasible at all, I'm afraid.

It's just not generally possible to run a plug-in for one system on another one.

It's kind of like saying: "I would like to take the radiator out of this Ford truck and put it into this Honda sedan"...

A radiator is not something that is universal part, it depends on the structure of the car, how the different systems connect in to it, etc... so you can't take any radiator from any vehicle and put it into any other vehicle.

Plugins are much the same way, they are also built to fit within a specific environment, to use certain services and UI mechanisms offered by the host program.

MoI has its own kind of services and UI structures, but they are not identical to Rhino's so you cannot just take a Rhino plugin and run it inside of MoI.
