OK, so where do we go from here? Do I continue to revise my change set to A) show plugin agent configs loaded for debugging purposes (like the service does), B) validate plugin agent config options (not specified in the bug, but people were suggesting this be done), and/or C) validate plugin config for the service?
For B) I had raised the question in the review of how do we tell if the plugin specific configurations are loaded? I see that many have sql_connection under DATABASE, and there are OVS configurations for the four agents, but all of these seem to provide a default value, if none specified. How do I tell if the default value is "valid"? I guess in the case of the bug they were using a MySQL database connection and without the plugin agent .ini it was falling back to sqlite? For C) similar to B) how do I pick configuration values to test and how do I make sure they are "valid"?
