 Replying to [comment:5 costdev]:
 > Note that with the page refresh instead of a redirect to
 `plugins.php?action=activate...`, plugins such as Google Listings & Ads
 will no longer redirect to their onboarding as they have specific checks
 for `$_GET['action']`, `'activate' === $_GET['action']` or
 `$_POST['checked']` for bulk activation.

 to change their code.

 Plugins with certain checks will not redirect to their configuration on
 page refresh / reload, as Colin noted.

 Tested Google Listings & Ads plugin: Does its configuration / onboarding
 does autoload?
 * 6.5.4 RC1: Yes ✅
 * 6.4.x and older: Yes ✅
 * 6.5.3: No ❌
 * [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/6717 PR 6717
 patch]: No ❌
