 Replying to [comment:43 ryan]:
 > I'm imagining the support questions about what the heck the difference
 between Delete and Uninstall are.  I think it's such an edge case that
 it's not worth having an uninstall button.

 Maybe the two should be combined.  Have a link that says "Uninstall", and
 when you click it WP says "This will clear all settings and data for this
 plugin.  Would you also like to delete the plugin files?   Yes/No"

 I'm not familiar with the Delete function.  How exactly is that going to
 work?  (Link please?)
