Comment:
The Meta half of this task has been ''WONTFIX''ed as they are in the
middle of work on a broader auditing system.
The existing `plugins_information` API endpoint does provide
`contributors` information, but would require separate calls for every
plugin, and return a lot of unnecessary data in the process. As most users
are unlikely to read such notices or understand them, this is no longer
workable as an in-Core feature.
But that said, there is definitely value here for security-minded site
operators. I'll move this functionality into the next release of [Lord of
the Files](https://wordpress.org/plugins/blob-mimes/) instead.
Thanks, everyone!
