But why?
Most of the table manager functions are already in Core. It is perfectly
possible to add and remove columns without the table >manager.

I am not a fan of having many Python plugins enabled by default, because

Yep, MOST is in. But for example not moving order or renaming columns. How
stupid is that, to rename a columns by creating a new one, copying the
data and then deleting the old one, just to find it then in the end of all
columns without the possibility to change that?
And to newbies it is NOT obvious by any means that they have to install
the Table Manager to be able to do so.
Sure there must be good reasons why those functions didn't make it into
core so far (maybe also the long existence of the Table Manager plugin?)
Sorry, didn't want to high jack this thread for my personal favourite ;)
Over and out

+1 to have "Table Manager" features in Core but not really in favour of
activating plugins unless they integrate the >>Core plugins schema.

Hi all,
I wonder what is the criterion to mark a plugin as featured. There is
even one featured plugin which is now deprecated.
Perhaps we should have clear criteria for inclusion, and keep the list
updated?
All the best.
With new users in mind, I wonder if the plugins page is really the
resource for picking a plugin, or if they just >>>search through the
plugin manager for things they might need, cause it does provide the
exact same informations as >>>the website (minus those tags).
More important for me would be the question, which plugins are
installed and enabled by default. And I ask the >>>question again (I
never got an answer on that before): Why e.g. is the Table Manager not
installed and available by >>>default? As ESRI shape is the major
output format, a novice starting to use QGIS has no tool to alter the
attribute >>>table, which is IMHO an unnecessary obstacle.
I bet there are not few people fumbling around in the dbf before
realizing that there is a plugin available.
Just my two cents
Bernd
