  Correct - yes, only - no (explained already), easy - yes. 
To be exact: it defines Firebird root directory, not plugin path.

  SetEnvironmentVariable.

  Use it before attempt to establish very first connection, or before 
attempt to load fbclient.dll (if it is possible in your app).

Are ther other possibilities to set the Firebird path than setting 
%FIREBIRD%? A parameter to attachDatabase() maybe?
