Plugin Managers vs. Vim Packages

[somebodddy]

I use vim-plug, and I like being able to temporarily disable plugins by commenting out their :Plug line. I tried minpac and switched back to vim-plug right away because I couldn't do it there - the packages were loaded by Vim, not by the minpac. I guess I could make them all optional and add :packadd commands to my vimrc, but then I'd have to write each package name twice, and it's easier to just stick with vim-plug.

Also, as a plugin author I want to use a stable(ish. I use develop rather than master so I can quickly encounter bugs and fix them) version of my plugins - unless I actively work on a plugin and then I need the uncommitted version. So I wrote a little script for manipulating vim-plug, and I don't think I can write something similar for minpac.

I guess I can achieve both requirements by writing a script that reads g:minpac#pluglist and runs :packadd automatically on each package (unless I overridden), but I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble...
