From my point of view, that seems absolutely normal.

Yup, but it only seems to simplify deployment of drbd9 with proxmox4 just to remove the need to edit-config before adding nodes. I just retried with package python-drbdmanage 0.91 and everything seems fine if we precise the plugin after init and before adding nodes. It more clear with my sense of 'best practice'. But I still have caveats with values given by drbdmanage list-nodes with thinlv plugin. Let's clarify this in another thread.
