Comment(by dd32):
> we're uncomfortable altering the PHP of a plugin.
Automatically adding it, you're right, but letting plugins add it
themselves? It'd at least help for future plugins.. and allow current 3-rd
party and forked plugins a means to explain its not the original.
Adding the metadata to the readme seems like a good idea on the top, but
then comes to the fact that the readme.txt is ignored for everything else
generally.. and doesnt work for single-file plugins which some people
still like to put in /plugins/
