I found here an article which talks about a C# WebCam Windows service - WebCamService.cs and it has a project & a dll (DShowNET). Maybe this will help a developer get a boost in creating a WebCam plugin for MP?
It lists as requirements, the following to make a standalone with the project:
# DirectX 8.1
# .NET Framework 1.0
# Visual Studio .NET (if you plan to edit it of course...)
# A windows OS that supports Windows Services (2K,XP)
# Any DirectX supported Video in device (Tuner, Capture, Camera etc...)
# 5 Minutes of your time
