 being added in the plugin act and behave like the rest of tempest.
 
+Dealing with configuration options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Historically Tempest didn't provide external guarantees on its configuration
+options. However, with the introduction of the plugin interface this is no
+longer the case. An external plugin can rely on using any configuration option
+coming from Tempest, there will be at least a full deprecation cycle for any
+option before it's removed. However, just the options provided by Tempest
+may not be sufficient for the plugin. If you need to add any plugin specific
+configuration options you should use the ``register_opts`` and
+``get_opt_lists`` methods to pass them to Tempest when the plugin is loaded.
+When adding configuration options the ``register_opts`` method gets passed the
+CONF object from tempest. This enables the plugin to add options to both
+existing sections and also create new configuration sections for new options.
