[wp-testers] How to clean up wp_options table? ...

More specifically:
 
I was trying K2 alpha 4 and noticed that it has a built-in plug-in that it's automatically activated to enable its "options panel". What I observed was that the optional panel did go away when you deactivate the theme. http://flickr.com/groups/topic/65604/
 
As far as my understanding, the automatic activation happens through header.php update_option('active_plugins', $plugins) (line 20); which in turn updated the wp_options table (specifically option_name=active_plugins).
 
Browsing that table got me thinking that I have a bunch of information there maybe is not needed anymore because the plug-in is not installed anymore.
 
So, my general question is on how to clean up this table, and specifically on how to deactivate an active plugin that is not on the plugin list (in the case of K2), without editing the rows manually.
 
TIA,
aaron
