command options in plugins?

Hi all,

Is there a way to specify command options for Python plugins that bzr
doesn't know about?  Simply adding an entry to bzrlib.commands.OPTIONS
doesn't work, because plugins are loaded only after parsing is complete.

I'm trying to provide all the scripts in bzrtools as plugins for the
next bzrtools release*, but some of the options, like --max-count or
- --skip-symlinks are not standard bzr options.

It's a bit of a chicken-egg problem, because the --builtin option should
control whether plugins are loaded and thus, how options are parsed.
Perhaps it would make sense to handle --builtin before normal option
parsing.
