Im not sure if it would be this easy. Ioncube has scripts to help identify the loader needed and it tries to test the loader. In order to do this though it needs all the loaders, about 8 meg I beleive so many people probably wouldnt go through the trouble.
There are also many variables from host to host. Some have loaders loading already in php.ini. Some dont but allow people to use their own php.ini to load the loaders etc. Even among people who are willing to read the ioncube docs many simply dont understand how paths work on a web server so invariable need a little guidance in getting the path to their loaders setup right in the php.ini anyways.
In the end, most web hosts, are generally pretty helpfull in this regard and if told where the current ioncube loaders are in a customers web space they usually dont have any problem setting up a php.ini for the customer so the loaders are loaded.
