 The Available Tools section does not currently contain a lot of content,
 right now it only contains a tags and categories converter.

 The Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin has shown it self to be a
 valuable tool, and parts of it are planned to make it into core during
 this year (as part of the [https://make.wordpress.org/core/2018/12/08/9
 -priorities-for-2019/ 9 projects for 2019]), but not everything fits the
 core philosophies, and should remain in the plugin.

 The plugin also allows for more rapid iterations of changes or tests that
 need to be introduced, making it great for introducing core-intended
 checks ahead of time.

 Not everything in the Health Check plugin is ready for core yet, but the
 features in the public plugin are valuable. The plugin is already listed
 as a featured plugin, and fairly easy to find that way, granted it comes
 low down due to the install count priority there.
 In light of this, I propose adding a quick install option for the plugin
 to the Available Tools section. It would simplify the process of finding
 and enabling it for end users, as I observe tutorials and explanations
 going through the process of explaining how to get at it from plugin
 searches.
