Could we opt in to the precautionary disabling of plugins on update?

Hello!

Thanks so much to everyone who worked on the latest update. I really appreciate it.

When I updated, I was warned to first update all plugins, which I did.

But then after updating I was told that 47 plugins had been deactivated as a precaution. That's really not cool. I get the idea, but sometimes I already have deactivated plugins that I don't want to activate but I want to keep them there. After the mass deactivation, then I can't remember which ones I might have already had deactivated.

I know that it's probably a good idea not to have installed but deactivated plugins. However I don't understand why this mass deactivation is helpful. Shouldn't it be on each user to deactivate plugins if there is a problem on the site? What else are we supposed to do but just reactivate them all again.

Please let me know if I am misunderstanding what is going on.

Thanks again for all your hard work!

Hello !
In admin / tools / maintenance / Environment tab, there is an  Activated plugin list.
I copy it somewhere as a memo before every upgrade.

Right. If only I remembered to do that. Is there a warning in the UI that I'm missing?
