If, for the sake of argument, you are one of the lead developers of a prominent DE, and you have an extension store that tracks the number of downloads, please be inclined to treat those numbers as data points as to what features to include in the next release.

When a user downloads an extension, they are telling you: "I use this DE, thankyouverymuch, but I need this functionality in it for it to be complete."

I mean, I like that you're very deliberate in your design choices (that's why I use your DE), but...

If that number on some extension gets *millions* high, then it's one hell of a hint that your DE is incomplete for a lot of people, and something critical is missing, so... get to work!

@drq Β«seeing those huge download numbers on extension, our team concluded that users are smart enough to use extension store. So, in the next release we're planning to remove ability to open filesΒ»
