Description

Currently the web console uses optional packages for some plugins.

Unfortunately an 'optional' import is wired when the bundle is resolved.
DynamicImport however is wired when the package is accessed.

This means, that currently, you

• install webconsole
• install scr
  = scr plugin is not available
• resolve webconsole (again)
  = scr plugin is available after 1 additional step

However if DynamicImport is used, the SCR plugin will become available immediately after it is being installed.
