Mark zu einem der neuesten upcoming Features für die 2.2er Version:

So the feature I’ve put into WordPress 2.2 is what I call plugin sandboxing. Before a plugin is activated or a plugin is edited, it is tested in a temporary fashion (that is, without being permanently activated). If it passes the test, it is activated for real. If it doesn’t pass the test (it’s throwing a fatal error that would normally take down your WordPress install), it is deactivated, and you get a nice error message telling you what went wrong. If the fatal error was caused because you edited an active plugin, the “Update File� button changes to “Update File and Attempt to Reactivate,� so that once you correct your typo, the plugin will go back to being activated, without requiring you to go back and manually activate it.
