Hi,

I recently noticed that there is no ‘strategy\_plugins’ setting in a configuration file. Other plugins, such as an action plugin, have settings like action\_plugins to adjust plugin locations. So I am not sure why a strategy plugin does not have these kinds of setting.

Is there any reason for this? Also, if I creates a PR to fix this, could you merge it?
