Comment (by squarecandy):

 1) This is awesome and much needed. +1. Thanks to everyone working on it.
 2) My only comment after reading the thread above is to be careful with
 the concept of "weeding the garden". Sure there's a ton of complex over-
 reaching now-abandoned plugins that need to be weeded out, but there are
 also some plugins that are very small, very useful and may not need a lot
 of tweaking. Perhaps plugins without recent updates get lower ranking in
 the default sort, but they should be easy to find by searching by title,
 author and sorting by various attributes as discussed.
