Can this set plugin-specific job configuration? #49

As I can't figure out how to contact Gary to just ask a question, I guess I'll file an issue to ask this question. Perhaps this will be a common question.

This Gradle plugin provides the ability to create jobs, and properties of those jobs. The GradleWare presentation demonstrated very simple property settings. In Jenkins, when additional Jenkins plugins are installed, you have the ability to add additional configuration that is specific to the plugin.

Will this Gradle plugin provide any convenience for setting those plugin-specific properties in each job?

I'm going to guess that the Gradle plugin is NOT able to script the installation or removal of Jenkins plugins themselves. I had trouble finding a concise description of the Jenkins REST API, but I didn't find any mention of being able to configure this, and I assume the Gradle plugin is just using that API to do its work.

Sorry, I didn't think of posting this question on the youtube video page. I'll do that.
