Description
I am a new user and while installing and configuring my extensions I could filter by enabled
or disabled
using the menu but not by installed
extensions. This particular filter is useful for me to swap between 2 extensions that do the same job, one will be installed and the other not so flicking between enabled
and disabled
adds unnecessary workload.
I can use the search term @installed
but as a new user I prefer menus, which is why I use Windows and not Linux.
I know that installed extensions are shown by default but I don't think this is obvious, like in a browser I can type my homepage address out or open a new window to show it but there is still a home button which I do use.
Request
Please add the Installed
filter option to the filter menu.
Additional
You should add all of the filters to the menu, this is more logical and user friendly especially for new users.
You could also put all of these under a sub menu for those using the menu will not mind the extra step.
