Since the addition of URI (#6923) added to the system info's plugin list, it's made the list harder to review and find important information. It would be good if we could improve the formatting to make it more readable.

Plugins list in 2.11:

List prior to 2.11:

A couple suggestions that might help:

  1. Double space the plugins list
  2. Remove the URL for plugins we own. That would make reviewing our plugins a lot easier and this is likely one of the main uses in support of the system info.
  3. Move the URL to the line below the Plugin Name.
  4. Remove https://www. (Only from the plugins list, this needs to exist in the Site Info.)

+1 on double spacing!

With the addition of the URL and having the lines wrap, it makes it really difficult to read.

What if we added an empty line between each plugin item but also put the URL on its own line (so anything with a URL will have two lines)? I do not think there is a practical way to not add the URL for "our" plugins, TBH.

@robincornett Yeah, empty space between plugins and force URLs on their own line would be great. It's just really hard to read as-is.
