I used https://github.com/gelguy/wilder.nvim.

It's a better interface for the cmdline mode. Better fuzzy finding, auto-completion, and UI. And it's really good imo! :D

I am somewhat addicted to having some extra colors for popups so it helps me navigate things better.

They are legacy plugins. Because I have already migrated to denops based plugins.
I support them currently, but if the plugin changes are too big, I will quit the support of them.

nvim-yarp does not use :UpdateRemotePlugins directly, but if neovim-python interface is changed, the plugin must be fixed.

cursorless.nvim currently registers node functions manually on its own, which means neither another plugin can do it in their own plugin nor can it be done in the default rplugins.vim (with “:UpdateRemotePlugins”) or it will conflict with cursorless.nvim. If that happens, the first plugin registering node functions will win and the other will fail.

Deprecating ":UpdateRemotePlugins" will be a game changer :)

Production plugin: https://github.com/hands-free-vim/cursorless.nvim
Sources for the plugin: cursorless-dev/cursorless#2256

A semantic highlighting (using extmarks) plugin for python. People may want to use LSP semantic highlight instead, but a few python users have been using it. Potentially, the plugin also may benefit from a straightforward refactoring, so it can completely eliminate the use of :UpdateRemotePlugins and rplugin decorators.
