Group of 3 Use it now Notable
Settings now has a dedicated Plugins category, and permission choices expand from just Allowed/Not allowed to also include Switch automatically and Ask each time
What
- The settings UI's list of categories (Display, Input & controls, Connections, Advanced, Experimental, Internal, etc.) gains a new 'Plugins' category. It starts out empty of built-in setting ids and is meant to be populated dynamically for plugin-specific (dotted) setting ids.
- The set of recognized permission-mode choices used elsewhere in the settings UI grows from two options (Allowed, Not allowed) to four, adding 'Switch automatically' and 'Ask each time'.
Why
This lays groundwork for plugins to expose their own settings in a dedicated place, and gives permission-related settings finer-grained choices than a simple allow/deny toggle.
Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
The writer flagged doubt
The finding doesn't specify which permission prompts or settings surface these new choices, or what each one precisely does.
