If I understand your request properly, Solar::register() already does  
this.  You can specify a "lazy-load" registration like so:

     $name = 'example';
     $class = 'Solar_Test_Example';
     $config = array(...); // or set to null for defaults
     Solar::register($name, $class, $config);

Then when you call Solar::registry('example') it will construct and  
configure the class for you at that moment.

Does that help at all?
