      Firstly, it doesn't look like there's a subcomponent defined for the "Next Build
      Number" plugin, so I've just assigned this to "plugin".

      There is a case when a user has launched a build (either manually or scheduled)
      and it needs to be deleted and the same (or similar) build run again. This
      happens when there is some kind of network or power outage unrelated to the
      source code.

      In this case, I'm still having to edit the "nextBuildNumber" files on the disk
      and reload the configuration from disk. This is quite annoying because it
      doesn't work well when builds are running, so you must have some downtime.

      To keep a long story short, it would be nice to be able to decrement the build
      number using the "Next Build Number" plugin as this plugin is awesome and has
      saved me a lot of time!!!
