Thank you for the request. Where do you want --plugin-innodb option to be documented? In the results of mysqld --help --verbose where we can find --innodb option descrition or somewhere else?

No, hardly in the --help --verbose. Any plugin option (and all storage engines are plugins) can be started with a --plugin- prefix. For example --plugin-innodb-doublewrite or --plugin-maria-recover it doesn't matter whether the storage engine was built as a dynamically loaded plugin or was statically compiled in. Obviously, we don't want to list every plugin option in the --help twice :) I think the manual is the best place to mention the --plugin prefix, as a generic prefix for all plugin command line options.

Document it in a place that is searched by Google.
