CLI UX for plugs with parameters?

[Simon Fels]

You wont set the attribute of the slot/plug in the command line you use to
connect slot and plug. Every attribute as to be set in the definition of
the plug/slot. Like

plugs:
  my-plug:
    interface: really-awesome-interface
    attribute1: value1
    ...

Then you simply connect via

$ snap connect my-snap:my-plug ..

without specifying  any attributes.

regards,
Simon
