If that's also the rule for configuration/administration pages, the
following of my plugins shouldn't be included since they use
synchronous HTTP requests from the setting pages or during scanning:

Custom Browse (from settings pages when downloading published
configuration)
Multi Library (from settings pages when downloading published
configuration)
TrackStat (during scanning when using MusicIP integration)
SQL PlayList (from settings pages when downloading published
configuration)
Database Query (from settings pages when downloading published
configuration)
Custom Scan (during scanning when using LastFM or Amazon scanning
modules)

I've no plan to change the synchronous HTTP requests in the above
plugins since they only happens during configuration or scanning, the
reason is that it would require bigger changes than what I'm prepared
to do at the moment.

Title Switcher only works if MusicInfoSCR is installed, will that also
be a problem ? 
I suppose it could be confusing for users that tries to install it and
haven't installed MusicInfoSCR.

Ideally, there should be a way for a plugin to specify that it requires
another plugin in the repository xml but I don't think that's possible
today. I think I mentioned it earlier somewhere.
