Okay, so the question is show plugin configuration options or not when plugin name is selected? I'd say a configuration button like GEdit for two reason: * It saves memory. * I scales. I can think of more than 10 plugins to write, and I am sure many can think of other features or tweeks that would be great to have, but clearly doesn't fit into the official branch for many reasons. So, with perhaps 50 plugins available or more, I'd say it is not interesting to see the configuration when browsing through the long list of names. In most cases people would not even read the description, they would know from the name if it was a plugin that could be of interest to them. My clame is based on personal experience when browsing for Firefox and Thunderbird extensions.
