Yes.

Whether the host stops the plugin or not is up to the host.  Chaning I/O
configs is not the sort of thing that happens as part of a performance, it's
like instantiating a new plugin.  You can do it (with potential RT issues)
while a performance is running, but it isn't part of the performance.

It isn't automated, it isn't a parameter, it's akin to a plugin
destroy/create pair.  Whether it is implemented as such or not...
