Hi, A bit later than initially planned I finally restarted looking at this KIP.
I made a few significant changes to the proposed APIs. I considered Chris' idea of automatically removing metrics but decided to leave that responsibility to the plugins. All plugins that will support this feature have close/stop methods and will need to close their PluginMetrics instance. This simplifies the required changes a lot and I think it's not a big ask on users implementing plugins.
