Visual Plugin Manager needed for Spyder #54

A simpler visual GUI for managing plugins is needed in Spyder... a GUI plugin for managing plugins (8^)).

Right now I have to hack the command line with conda to get information about installed plugins and it is tedious.

Perhaps put another menu under the "Tools... Preferences" menu and/or as another panel inside the Preferences dialog as a "Plugins" menu item in the left-hand navigator.

This will let people see what their current configurations are for Spyder plugins. It will help for reporting on installed plugins too, because a "send to Spyder team" button could be added right there to do context-sensitive reporting.

It will also help to extend the Spyder architecture to accommodate more plugins more easily.

Please consider enhancing the plugin interface to include a better GUI for managing plugins.

Thank you.

Hey @richdevboston, thanks for reporting. Thanks a lot for the suggestion, we also agree with you and are discussing about how to add such an interface for Spyder 6, to be released next year.

I'm going to move your issue to this repo

https://github.com/spyder-ide/ux-improvements/

because that's where we discuss interface improvements.
