Description

Right now, disabled is a nice alternative to closed, and allows developers to push updates (security, etc) while not permitting new installs.

The problem is ... plugins just live like that.

I propose that, 12 months after a plugin is set disabled, it is automatically moved to closed. After all, there's really no reason to be perma-disabled, is there? And we can always edit if needed.
