Put Plugin Configs in Separate Folder

Would it be possible to have Plugin configs automatically go into a /plugin folder instead of the default /config folder.

Updating a modded server usually involves having to replace the config folder with an updated folder. This means I need to move each plugin config out of said folder before deleting and replacing it. Then I would have to go back and move all the old plugin configs back into the /config folder.

I know you can move the actual plugins to a /plugin folder in the game directory. Can we have the configs be placed in this folder as well? It would also be nice to have the sponge config moved to this folder by default.

How is that any different than adding a custom mod to a modded server?

At the heart of it, a Sponge plugin is just a Forge mod, with a layer between the plugin and forge.
