I think it would be useful to have a version of NarrWeb in addons:
there are many refinements that we can make and I don't see that we
can make all of them quickly. I think we can get a majority of the
content added soon, but the refining of colors, position, etc, is
going to happen as more feedback comes in.

I looked into our plugin code, and I don't see an easy way to have a
user plugin (addon) override a system plugin (such as NarWeb). Having
two plugins with the same name causes confusion.

I think my recommendation would be to:

1) remove NarWeb from 3.2.1
2) anyone that was overwriting gramps 3.2.1 on top of 3.2.0 would
still see the old one though
3) add the latest version of NarWeb to addons, with a new ID, and new menu name
4) suggest that people hide the old one from 3.2.0 (we might even do
that automatically via code)
5) update NarWeb in addons as we need to, and have people update their
gramps addons

Otherwise, we will have to have many interim versions of gramps just
to update NarWeb (or users will have to wait a long time before they
can get improvements).

What do you think?
