  2. Allow deleting uninstalled/unused modules/themes/layouts from the filesystem via the admin UI

Allow deleting uninstalled/unused modules/themes/layouts from the filesystem via the admin UI

When you uninstall a module, it only deletes the data. I think that uninstall should remove the module entirely (from the filesystem and the ‘List Modules’ page) and there should be a ‘Clear Data’ tab or button where we clear the data for a module. I think this would be more intuitive this way. Thoughts?

When there are thousands of links to be listed, it is better to split the map. Otherwise, hreflang is a good choice.

xmlsitemap module generates wrong links for languages

I don't fully understand why someone would need multiple sitemaps for different languages, but you certainly know better. Good luck!

xmlsitemap module generates wrong links for languages

Easy xml sitemap doesnt seem to offer multiple sitemaps for different languages, otherwise it seems a good solution for a single sitemap but then it doesnt make sense to exclude languages at all...
