You can use $plumeOptions to pass everything your argument, but you'll need to add a getDefaultOptions() in PlumeOptionsType to specify the default value for your option. See for instance https://github.com/symfony/symfony/blob/master/src/Symfony/Component/Form/Extension/Core/Type/CheckboxType.php to see what this method should look like.
