I’d then suggest to simplify the plugin window a bit:
* Reduce »Usage« to »Drag plugins to reorder them« (you may also leave the »Use the checkboxes to activate or deactivate plugins«, but I’d say the checkboxes are rather obvious to anyone who got this far. ;)
* Automatically apply any changes. It is only a list of plugins after all.
* It really does not matter (especially at this stage) if the plugin is community-supported or core, it’s only confusing. The first column and the tooltip can be removed.
* With the tooltip removed, it can be used to display the long description of the plugin. It obscures it a bit but the description is really only needed once, if at all.
* »by [plugin_author]« is cool, but can either be fit into the end of the tooltip like »Made by [plugin_author]« or just moved to the credits of About Cardapio.

Some of these may be radical or obscuring but they all really help to keep the overview clear and get details on demand. :)
