Description

Some plug-in may need special setup like python module install, special setup on a web service, etc..
The description metadata might not be enough for complexe case and anyway a description should be a description, not a manual
My idea would be to add a .md file names like the module when needed. This xbar GUI would then display this when it exists

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Review how plugin description metadata is stored and how the xbar GUI currently presents it, then check existing plugin naming conventions for an optional module-named .md file. Done means special setup instructions can be authored separately and are displayed by the GUI when that file exists.
