Description:
I tried loading the Python sample plug-in from http://wb.mysql.com/?p=197 - which is obsolete - and it sort of worked:
1. It told me to restart WB after loading the plug-in (I did)
2. After restarting WB, I had a new "Output" tab. (seems generated by plug-in)
3. There's no way to invoke the functionality of the plug-in.
4. There's no way to remove the plug-in.
One can remove the plug-in by deleting the .py file from the modules directory (in Windows, in user application data, not program installation directory).
It would be much nicer if WB had an extension manager, akin to Firefox. This would provide a mechanism to:
1. View installed plug-ins
2. Identify plug-ins which are incompatible with the current version of WB.
3. Remove existing plug-ins.
4. Install new plug-ins.
5. Perhaps upgrade existing plug-ins.
How to repeat:
See above.
Suggested fix:
Add extension manager for plug-ins and modules.
