Create a new “Search API Extra Plugins” module/project

Frequently, people propose adding new plugins to this module which are well-written and work fine, but where I’m unsure whether they are useful for enough people to warrant inclusion in this module. It would be great to have a place where such plugins could still be made available to the site admins who might be looking for them, but without overloading the list of options for “newbies” that find this module already hard enough to use.

I’m not sure whether this place would just be a sub-module of the Search API or a new project – both has it’s up- and downsides. I guess not necessarily being the maintainer, as I’m already way behind on maintaining my existing modules, would be plus for a new project; findability, however, clearly indicates this should be a sub-module. (In case we opt for a sub-module, we might want to fuse this with #3220868: Create an “Advanced options” sub-module for hidden/advanced config .)

In any case, we could then also always discuss transferring popular plugins from the new module to the Search API itself.

Here is an ongoing list of issues which might be suited for inclusion in this new module:
