--  name:     the displayed name
--  desc:     the description (could be used as a tooltip)
--  type:     the option type
--  def:      the default value
--  min:      minimum value for number options
--  max:      maximum value for number options
--  step:     quantization step, aligned to the def value
--  maxlen:   the maximum string length for string options
--  items:    array of item strings for list options
--  scope:    "all", "player", "team", "allyteam"      <<< not supported yet >>>
