In addition to the wp_die(), maybe we should hide the Editor menu item if no plugins are installed?

Also, terminology change in 3.0: blog => site. Clearly we haven't gotten to the other wp_die either.

Replying to nacin:

I agree - changed the patch. Changed "blog" to "site" also.

Do we really want to run get_plugins() on every admin page load? It can be really slow.

(In [14299]) Don't call get_plugins() in menu.php. It is too slow to call on every admin page load. fixes #13117

Reverted the get_plugins() call. In the past it has caused notable slowness when called for every page load.

Don't we have a Transient with the Slugs of installed plugins that we could use here?

Indeed we do!

#11 @solarissmoke

Hopefully this will be better?

#12 @nacin

If we're going to do that, then if the transient === false, we should assume the blog has plugins. A) The transient may be expired, B) there is no guarantee the dashboard widget that controls it is registered.

#13 @solarissmoke

Yeah I realised that that could be a problem just after uploading the patch. I've changed it to check for === false.

#14 @solarissmoke

On the other hand, I'm beginning to think that it's not worth adding extra overhead just to show/hide the plugin editor link. Maybe it's better just left at [14299].
