User-Persisted Plugins

Google Chrome allows you to hook up your Google account to your web plugins, so if I install a plugin on one computer, and go to a different computer and signed in to Google, I have that plugin loaded on to that computer. I suggest a similar behavior for site-installed plugins. Run a check when studio starts and load plugins that the user has “installed” regardless of the computer. Would be useful for people (like me) who work with studio on multiple computers.

It would also be annoying for people that use multiple accounts for development, and don’t want to have to log into a particular account just to get their plugins loaded. Both ways are desirable in some cases.

Could Studio save the list of plugin names to the user (still having the plugins installed to the computer), but if the account logs on and there is a plugin on that list that isn’;t installed on the computer, it auto-installs it. Same thing with studio script editor colors pl0x :frowning:

Would a possible solution be to just not un-install the plugins when you log out? So if you want the plugins from three accounts you just have to log into each of them once and then you have all of those plugins on that computer.
