management buttons

About these buttons:

They need some spacing, but more importantly. I think they are not really useful. Nobody will usually delete on enable/disable a whole bunch of plugins. Maybe two or three at maximum. One would be fine with doing them one by one then.

I think we should drop the checkboxes and these buttons completely. Instead we add one single button: "Disable all Plugins". That's the one button you would use when debugging a problem. You disable all plugins, then reenable them one by one.

I find this whole row a bit weird. From a usability perspective it's also not clear what it does. (Even after "All" and "None" have been made to look like links so people know they are clickable.) I think the main issue is how it is presented, although I don't have an alternative right now.
Not having that line would solve that problem... But the rest what @splitbrain said makes sense as well. So, +1

This should be reduced to "Disable all". Then we can get rid of the checkboxes.

Just removed the checkboxes and more in 67e18ae. Can someone please have a look at that to see if everything is okay?
The "Disable all plugins" button still needs to be implemented (but not by me)!

https://github.com/hacktard/dokuwiki-extension-manager/commit/c125433df60864397b99c299ebb081a7d518762c adds disable all action. I don't know if the button placement is good though.
