Description:
When opening the Configuration TAB in Workbench Administration (once mySQL Server Opened) the Plugin Directory defaults to /usr/.... ie UNIX Style.

How to repeat:
As above

Suggested fix:
Perhaps default it to either the Current OS or not at all.

Possibly due to the initial setup where the configuration does NOT detect the OS Version properly.

See Bug #56987

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 5.2.45, and here's the changelog entry:

On Microsoft Windows, the default plugin directory in the configuration
tab was set as a Linux style path such as "/usr/", but it is now based
on the OS aware "BASEDIR" value.

Thank you for the bug report.
