I have been harboring some growing concerns about the direction of the plugin manager integration proposals for Drupal core almost since their inception, but have not been able to make an informed opinion on the subject until I had properly reviewed the proposed system on a much deeper scale.

While my impressions of the project and the current implementation are fairly negative, I have aimed to frame my criticisms in a positive constructive manner because I believe that the goals of the project are worthwhile, and that for a large section of users this could be a very flexible and usable solution.

Unfortunately a lot of my concerns have been well founded, and I believe that the implementation of this system needs to be taken in a different direction for it to be able to succeed in its goals, while not negatively affecting projects like Aegir, Open Atrium and many other ‘serious developers’.

I have just finished my first updates of Drupal and it went very smooth.

The only thing that was a bit annoying was the part about disabling and enabling non core modules. I had to go over the list four times, when disabling, as dependencies blocked disabling some modules until other modules had been disabled.

This got me to think that there must be an easier way to do this. What I came up with is, in my view, both a simple and elegant solution.

Simply add a "Drupal Core Upgrade/Update" option in the Site Maintenance configuration.
