Description
https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/pull/5959 fixed a darktable hanging issue by delaying scripts startup until the GUI entered lighttable.
Scripts that don't have a UI should be safe to start.
Scripts that do have a UI may be safe to start so that shortcut functionality is available without the UI being created until in lighttable mode.
