On the plugins page we experimented with adding some explanatory text to the contextual help and then putting a short description of the page along with a link to the install page.

That’s not a bad idea, and it helps keep the main screen clean.
I didn’t know what to do about it, or if the Plugins pages are final, but I’ll give it another try if I’m not beaten to it.
As a side-thought, it seems to me that things would be easier with an horizontal menu: The functionality would be discoverable immediately and we would not need to point it out and to link to it:
---------------------------------------------- | Comments | APPEARANCE | Plugins | -----------------/ \--------------- | THEMES | Widgets | Editor | Add new themes | ----------------------------------------------
But that’s another discussion. :-D
