Bug Description

Please add an About|Extensions dialog command in the
Help menu. The dialog would give some details about
extensions, like versions, and it could show the
'internal' versus 'external' ones and might even list
disabled/unloadable ones, such as those that fail to
load on Windows machines per RFE #1151684. Perhaps the
dialog would function like the About|Plugins feature of
Netscape or Mozilla. Of special importance is
information regarding the availability of import/export
file formats.

The version info of the core software is also hard to find
in the About window without already knowing what to search
for. It is really artistic and nice, but hides information.

We now have this dialog but it's pretty much useless. Just
lists everything as "unloaded" and that's that.

We now sort of have this with the extensions manager. If you require additional changes, please consider opening an issue on Gitlab.
