Comment(by dd32):

 I'm starting to consider that adding this might be a bad idea. Whilst
 originally it sounds like a cool idea.. it does have the issues other
 posters have mentioned.

 I think we need to add some hooks into the plugin info dialogue to allow a
 plugin to do this properly, I know of 1 plugin which attempts to add a
 "Install dev version" item, and thats pretty much impossible without JS
 atm.
