The problem is that all of Data::Dumper's attributes are package-scoped globals, so when you pass options to the Dumper plugin you are modifying $Data::Dumper::Indent, $Data::Dumper::Pad, and so on. It would be possible to re-work the Dumper plugin to store those options locally, and apply them before calling Dumper, but it is not setup that way currently.
