If they're clean, that's doable. I don't think you'd need an option for
this though - user plugins should override the system plugins by
default.

Use arg_set_value() to change the value if it exists already, and that
should be sufficient. You should also call arg_free() on the value
you're replacing.
In Nessus 1.3.x, arglists will go away completely and memory management
will be done automatically by the backend.
