Welcome! Glad to see your impressions are positive. I'll reply inline

You mean you had to deactivate and reactivate it? Yes, that should
probably be handled a little better.

/dist/plugins and /dist/themes are probably the place for you to go
until the addons directory is completed. /explore/plugins is no longer
up to date (while the info may be correct, the downloads aren't).

There's a shared spreadsheet at
http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AnsMFzzpMTLDdG41RmJXT3ROekFOOUpzRXBhNVpKV1E&hl=en
that shows which plugins and themes have been updated. If you update
one, to change the cell from red to green you need only add a single
space or other character in it.
