But it's very uncommon to see users using such plugin options. Very unlikely to happen.

Thank you for calling this out. For a normal package I don't think this would be acceptable as it's straightforward to simply not rename the plugin in the SRU. But for sosreport I think it's OK, given that it's run manually by users only in special circumstances and as you say it's unlikely that this will actually affect anyone.

This change seems to have disappeared in the backport to Bionic, but it doesn't matter so I left it.
