Description:
The readme and documentation for using the Connector/.Net Plugin have a line in the example app.config that includes the Connector:

   <DbProviderFactories>
     <add name="MySQL Data Provider" invariant="MySql.Data.MySqlClient" description=".Net Framework Data Provider for MySQL" type="MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlClientFactory, MySql.Data, Version=6.2.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d" />
   </DbProviderFactories>

While this is fine for developers that don't have Connector/.Net installed, if a developer does have the connector installed *and* leaves this line in, they will get an error. Therefore, more clarification needs to be added to both the readme and documentation to explain this fact.

No changelog entry has been added because the plugin has not been released in any of the MySQL Enterprise Monitor versions.
