Forgot what a bunch of plugins did so I cleared out the unwated ones and put comments with descriptions of what the plugins do for the more unknown ones. Bonus - great plugin idea! Add comments to you config file about what the plugin does OR an cmp/blink type app that grabs the description from the repo.
