[Qgis-developer] Table Manager and Refactor Fields (was Re: Re: Featured plugins)

[Bernd Vogelgesang]

Is there any way to make Refactor Field more prominent to the users?  I  
have to admit, I already tried it once and immediately forgot about again.

And the major drawback: There seems to be no way to change the current  
layer, but you have to produce a new one (temporary or new).
This is not very comfortable, compared to Table Manager.

Cheers
Bernd
