 * Hello!
 * I admit ignorance to the underlying subsystem of WordPress, so if something like
   this already exists, then please do excuse me for asking this.
 * That said, I am not certain if such a feature (or some analogue) exists, so please
   let me know if a better means exists.
 * Now then, my feature request is this:
 * Would it be possible to have WordPress, upon upgrade, run a ‘test’ function on
   every plugin in it’s system (with an adequate fallback for plugin’s that do not
   support tests) and e-mail the result/display it on a webpage, so you can tell
   when your plugins are out of date or malfunctioning?
 * This recently bit me after I did an upgrade and found out my subscribers weren’t
   getting any of my e-mails for posting anymore. Whilst I should (and now do) try
   to thoroughly test things on my system, adding the human element can cause issues.
   Perhaps a solution such as this will help prevent other people in the future,
   should plugin authors support it.
 * Thanks for listening!
