 reads)

 While that's true, and for most of us it's easy to figure it out, but not
 everyone writes the plugin with the intention of having us host it, and I
 still think a lot of the confusion comes from the fact that most authors
 have no clue that the slug and text-domain actually have to match.

 > By adding a check on plugin upload if text domain and plugin slug don't
 match, with a link to the handbook article above, we can hopefully reduce
 the confusion a bit.

 I'm still in favour of this though.
