I just don't want to f**k up the PLUGIN with configuration variable testing, since plugins are given limited access back into the other structures. We'd need to pass this in as a PLUGIN option, otherwise I'd object. Otherwise I don't care, but I don't want plugins being polluted with knowledge beyond the BOARD.
