indeed, i've had to do something similar in an unrelated project for
mysql/postgres database foo. ugly, but it works :)

i think that there's been discussion about extending the nagiosplug api
in a more general fashion which would solve this type of problem for
every plugin, not just the mysql ones.
however, i never heard if it made it anywhere. has anyone moved further
forward with the stuff (ini-parsing for extra cmdline arguments) we
discussed?
