 * Hi! I have a growing list of plugins that I want to test and maybe use in WordPress
   in the future. It would be nice if it were possible to add plugins to a favorites
   list in my account, which could be accessed from the plugins list in the dashboard
   of the WordPress installation I am logged in to. Many plugins are paid, so it
   would be natural to keep a favorites list, local or even remote, in the WordPress
   account.

 * Yeah, that will never happen. You can favorite a plugin in the WordPress repo
   in your profile here but 3rd party plugins or themes will never show up in a 
   favorite list here.

 * I’m not talking about plugins that are outside the WordPress repository. If the
   repository already allow us to favorite plugins, why this feature cannot be available
   in the dashboard of WP installations?

 * You mean when you log into your dashboard on your own site and there’s a favorite
   plugins on your own dashboard?

 * That’s here on this site, yes.

 * As long as you realize that _the favorites there on your site_ would not in anyway,
   shape or form _connected to the favorites on this wordpress.org site_ then that
   should be doable though probably via a plugin.
 * I mention that because forum accounts have no connection to anyone’s site at 
   all. The forum accounts never have and if there was it would raise a whole slew
   of privacy concerns.
 * There is no way to connect my forum account with a WordPress installation and
   that’s a good thing.

 * I understand the concerns about security and I totally agree. I think such favorite
   feature could be restricted to my site anyway and that is enough to help me a
   lot.
