Peter,

Also by plugin design all variables to related to plugin should start
with PLAGINNAME_

so as far as internally we keep plugin name innodb - all variables start
innodb_.

to move to xtradb_ naming we should rename plugin and therefore all
variables will be renamed, that will require a lot of work to handle
properly.
