For instance:

```
datasette -s plugins.datasette-complex-plugin.configs '{""foo"": [1,2,3], ""bar"": ""baz""}'
```

could also be provided using:

```
export DS_PLUGINS_DATASETTE-COMPLEX-PLUGIN_CONFIGS='{""foo"": [1,2,3], ""bar"": ""baz""}'
datasette
```

(I do not like mixing `-` and `_` in env vars but I do not have a best easily reversible example at the moment)

FYI, you could take some inspiration from another great open source data project, Metabase:
