I agree that improving the thunar plugin support should be done as a separate set of patches from updating XFCE 4.18, as they are independent issues (i.e. the plugin support could be fixed in the current packages without upgrading XFCE, and XFCE can be upgraded successfully without fixing the plugin support).
