"active" means plugins which were enabled by the user. All other plugins are not read at all at startup of Geany but only if the plugin manager is loaded. > To solve this problem, it might be best to unload each module after > reading the information for each plugin - this would be good to do > anyway to save memory.

Hmm, since non-active plugins (now) are only initialized when opening the plugin manager, I suggest to unload the modules (of inactive plugins) when closing the plugin manager instead of caching the metadata.
