Here is a final version of the load and save configurations.  I fixed the
saveConfiguration to open a StandardFileMenu and filter for '.config'.  I
extended StardardFileMenu to filter the file list.

> Last enh, and it is a cumulative changeset  (you do not have to load the
first two).  This adds a pattern to the StandardFileMenu used, so we only
show .config files.

uses this list as the unassigned, or available plugin list.  When a
configuration is loaded, we recalculate the partial list of remaining
plugins, so that the list in the UI is filtered.
