Generally the request looks good to me. OTOH it would be great to get feedback from the maintainer of the Metrics Plugin <https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Metrics+Plugin> (Stephen Connolly?). If CloudBees plans to release a "CloudBees Jenkins Metrics Plugin" as a part of this new product, it may cause some confusion.
