Comment (by ericlewis):

 I agree with @ocean90 that there's too much of a context shift to drop the
 user directly into the plugin card UI.

 Why do we have two plugin browsers? Are there thoughts about combining the
 two?

 A simple fix in the short term could be to add a row in the search results
 of installed plugins that says "Want to search for plugins to install?
 Click here"
