繁體中文裡翻譯為外掛程式管理員，但“員”一般指人，建議改為外掛管理器，指工具。簡體中文裡也叫插件管理器，而不是插件管理員。glyphs3和4都需要改。

In Traditional Chinese, it is currently translated as “外掛程式管理員” (implying a person); I suggest changing it to “外掛管理器” to reflect that it is a tool. Similarly, in Simplified Chinese, it is referred to as “插件管理器” rather than “Plug-in Administrator.” This change is needed for both Glyphs 3 and 4.
