Display Active Plugins First

A simple, yet powerful tweak!
I work with many plugins on my sites so this plugin is a pleasure when you have to manage lots of plugins on a daily basis.

Thanks for making it and keep up the good work! ;-)

Awesome, should be in core :)

This plugin will add a “Settings” link to every active plugin listed on the “Plugins” page (right next to the “Deactivate” and “Edit” links). This makes it easy to acccess plugin configuration without hunting through the entire dashboard menu.
The plugin finds the right admin page by automatically scanning through the WordPress menu structure to detect configuration-related plugin pages. Lab trials shown success rate of over 95%.
Additional notes :
<ul>
<li>Quick Configuration Links will automatically skip plugins that add their own custom link(s) to their “Plugins” page listing.</li>
<li>If a plugin has only one menu entry, the “Settings” link will always point to that page – even it has nothing to do with configuration. This is by design.</li>
</ul>

Quick Configuration Links

Automagically adds a "Settings" link to every active plugin on the "Plugins" page.
