[Qgis-developer] Featured plugins

[DelazJ]

Agree with you, Bernd, that features like the ones provided by "Table
Manager" plugin should be in QGIS by default. However, installing (and
enabling) by default other dev's plugins mean that QGIS dev team should
somehow be responsible of its stability; there are already Core plugins
(Processing, DBManager...) and I'm not sure they should have to do this
with other plugins.
+1 to have "Table Manager" features in Core but not really in favour of
activating plugins unless they integrate the Core plugins schema.
