==Summary==
Current options for managing add-ons installed by third parties and system administrators are limited. We allow disabling but not uninstalling. These add-ons are still in the way and users do not want to see them anymore. We should allow uninstalling these add-ons by making the remove button simply hide them from the list. The user should be given a way to re-install these add-ons, the Available Add-ons section has been suggested.
