Comment (by xkon):

 The `participating plugins` is a bit confusing to me. Even if I was to
 translate it on my native language it would still not make much sense all
 for a simple user 'all installed plugins are participating somehow since
 they are in there' if that makes sense.. Also the names of the exporters
 wouldn't mean anything to most people I guess as well.

 @allendav would it be more wise to find to just show the names of the
 plugins that are using the erasure/export instead and leave it at that
 maybe?

 This way we could say something like `This tool only exports the personal
 data stored by WordPress and the plugins listed below. It is your
 responsibility to export any personal data from plugins that you might
 have installed and are not seen in this list. - [List of plugins names]`.
