Hi,

it has been reported, that with many plugins installed, the tools menu
grows such that some entries become invisible on a normal monitor.
Maybe force plugins into a "Plugins" menu, where each can have exactly
one sub-menu where it arranges its options? We could then also move the
general "plugin" preference entry there, plus any plugin-specific
preferences.
I.e.
Plugins ->
SomePlugin ->
FirstAction
SecondAction
SomePlugin Preferences...
OtherPlugin ->
FunnyAction
WeirdAction
OtherPlugin Preferences...
-------------
Find Plugins...
This is quite common with other software that uses plugins. We have this
unusual situation with JOSM where plugins sort of merge into JOSM proper
and the user doesn't necessarily know whether a certain menu option
comes from the core or from one of the plugins. This has its advantages
from the user's perspective (why should he care) but also causes
problems ("well my JOSM has this menu entry, I don't know why yours
doesn't... could be one of by 27 plugins?").
