Description
The "Only show plugins from the official repository" option in the "Options" tab of the plugin_installer duplicates functionality already available as a filter in the "Plugins" tab. This is very confusing as you think you're seeing plugins from "all repositories" (the filter says) but instead you're restricted to official repository only due to that option checked in a tab you don't see in front of you.
This confusion made me waste a couple of hours trying to debug issue #4621
It'd be nice to see this fixed in 1.7 branch too.
I'm missing Target version 1.7.4 here :)
Maybe easier to add a Target version 1.7 ?
