------------------------------------------

Probably the easiest way to solve this is to create a PullRequest at Github, so we can have a look at it.

> It would be nice if the documentation could be updated so as not to be misleading.  However it would be even nicer to have that functionality, as it is a critical configuration in order to be able to use this plugin in modern CI/CD pipelines.
> Is such a configuration planned for any future release?  I have already bolted this functionality onto the 2.5.3 source so that I can at least use this on my projects.  Otherwise this plugin is not usable for my team, hence why I am marking this as major.  But I do not understand the procedure for sharing this feature, or if it's already being added to a future release then it's a moot point.
