 * I use InnoDB and the plugin creates its tables as MyISAM. It shold be better 
   to let the plugin use the default database engine.

 * Thank you,
    The MyISAM speed is better than the InnoDB, so we use it for better
   performance. you can go to your phpMyAdmin to change it if you want

 * MyISAM speed better than InnoDB. uh? and how did you come to that conclusion 
   if I may ask?
 * Apart from that, you don’t have to make that choice for the user, let the plugin
   install with the default engine the hosting or the sysadmin choose to adopt.
 * I did change it by phpmyadmin fo course, but it resets each time you deactivate/
   activate the plugin so it’s an ugly solution.
