I don't think this works because a space will trigger the shell to split
the args - the only way I could get it to work was by quoting the whole
-plugin argument. I know the syntax of optional plugin args is ugly as
hell but this should probably use "," like hwprofile.

Can we give users more of a hint of what's wrong? I suspect you'll need
to factor out a validate_cache_param and return a string that describes
the failure mode. Otherwise it gets frustrating to the user.
