Couldn't agree more.

But my position is; when a new version of an existing plugin is 'installed' the question as where its to be put shouldn't even be put

Nah, when I subsequently saw it I'd forget why it was there and then I'd delete it. I'd rather leave it as is and curse when it puts the question again, and I neglect to delete the defaults again, and have to use Prefs->Toolbars to delete them again .

I'll defer installing the new version of the Goodreads plugin until you release 3.15 and let you know what happens, here.

If the change causes any grief you have my blessing to reverse it - its not a critical issue, just an annoyance to a minority of users - maybe just one in three million
