It will be great to specify that edits to the value in config.xml do not
take effect without removing and adding the plugin. This is added by --save

> Two things are currently missing from our docs. First is that when adding
> plugins using {{--save}}, the entry created in config.xml will have a
> {{<variable />}} child element which we do not document anywhere. Second, we
> do not make it clear that CLI variables can be referenced in plugin.xml using
> the {{$VARIABLE}} syntax.
