4. The dummy template loader can now return the ones we have loaded. Load the template again.
5. Did it request any more templates? If so, load those, and repeat.
6. Keep on with this loop until a template load (which might even have to be a render) fails to request any templates that we have not yet loaded.

I can't think of a reason a plugin would need to add a form. The logout form is a special case to protect against logout-csrf attacks.
So I think plugins get to return a list of dictionaries, each with a `label` and an `href`:
```python
return [{
""label"": ""Upload CSVs"",
""href"": datasette.urls.path(""/-/upload-csvs"")
}]
```
But... is there an argument for returning headings, to divide up the menu?
I think so. I also like the idea that a default plugin checks for the `root` user and outputs links to the different debugging tools - maybe those should be wrapped in a section heading.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",732798913,
