    Have a way to safely install/uninstall and enable/disable a plugin via the CLI
    Current script tools/utils/admin/activate_plugin.php is mostly an internal thing: there is absolutely no input validation and there is no feedback at all if an issue happen.

    Playing with plugins on the CLI can be an useful thing for ops people but the current tool is simply too dangerous and too easily breakable.

    I recently have a bad experience with the installation of a plugin: no more GUI. Not easy to restore things.
    We know that plugins can be very intrusive.
