Basically, this states that when encoding/decoding from JSON, the "type"

There you're referring to the field in JSON, right?

To clarify that: You mean Jackson stores it just in the JSON and not that
Jackson stores in any Java property in a StoragePluginConfig subclass
instance, right?
Do type values for the type property come from only the @JsonTypeName
annotation on a subclass (when present) or the subclass's simple name
(when @JsonTypeName is not present)? (Does Jackson (directly) access any
of the "name" or "NAME" members in our various subclasses of
StoragePluginConfig?)
