Description

Users should be able to enable or disable plugins in the About screen.

We do not want runtime plugin booting of course, just making note somewhere (db?) that a plugin is disabled, so it won't load during next restart. This would be handy for upgrades, where we could ask users to disable all thirdparty (not-supported) plugins prior upgrade.

We could also add new column "supported: yes/no" to plugin metadata, so we can present easily which of these are fully supported (distributed in our repos - upgradable).
