PayPal should be treated as any other payment plugin, to unify treatment of payment methods.
I think we might want to do some deprecation steps here first. Suggestion, for 20.11: - Deprecate the plugin in the release notes - Add information about deprecation to the Paypal system preferences - Add an entry to the "system information" tab For 21.05: - Remove the code and enforce the switch
Where are we here? Should the deprecation be announced in 20.11?
I wonder if we aught to either grab the plugin as part of the upgrade if the syprefs are set.. or at the very least highlight to the user as upgrade time that they'll need to grab the plugin.. (and make sure we copy the config to somewhere so they can easily use it in the plugin config when they come to use that route)
Lets put a bold message about it being deprecated, in the release notes, and the about page!.

A few more strings are not bad right now, but should be added very soon.
Can we have a patch please?
