There will always be the plug-in browser if someone wants to find out more about a plug-in / script. We should try to improve this browser instead of cluttering the menus with such icons.
A better browser would be useful. Most users won't (and shouldn't) care, or even need to know, whether a given menu item is a core function, a compiled plug-in, or a script. On the other hand, it is nice to know that a given menu item is implemented via a script since a user who generally likes what that script does but wants to tweak it or see how it does what it does can easily track down the script file. Some mechanism to map menu entries to information about the entries (including implementation details such as the scripting language used) would be useful. By knowing something was a <insert language here> script it should make it easier to find the file to fix/modify/inspect it. -- Cheers! Kevin.
