#6359 closed enhancement (duplicate)

Use the plugin updater to install plugins

Description

It'd be cool if next to the "Download" links on the dashboard were "Install" links that installed the plugin much like an update would do.

Perhaps even an option at WordPress.org to specify the URL to your WordPress install which would enable an "Install" button that would take you to your blog, confirm (to avoid exploiting), and then install the plugin.
