Using $:/AddPlugins tiddler instead of "Plugin Modal"

This is an experiment

There is an issue at GH Move plugin library from modal to tiddler · Issue #3208 · TiddlyWiki/TiddlyWiki5 · GitHub, where Mat suggested to use a tiddler instead of the “import plugin” modal.

This bundle contains some experimental changes. I did try to change as few lines of code as possible.

It also adds the “Get more plugins” button to the Right Sidebar → More → Plugins tab

I somehow managed to miss that on GitHub. I don’t need to try it, I think it’s a great idea.

I think for a tiddler that is frequently opened, it definitely means having a keyboard shortcut key for jumping to it.

Interesting.

I personally import plugins at the beginning of a wiki and then may be once a year, to check for updates.
