As discussed with @gep13 in this issue in one of my repositories, it would be nice if add-ins could be listed but marked as pre-release on the site. My use case is that I have an add-in that definitely falls in the "works on my machine" status. It invokes MAGE.exe for building click-once apps and frankly I'm kind of annoyed we still use click-once so I'm not really going to be spending a ton of time testing every scenario out on it on the weekends.

But it should work. I think others would find value in it, and maybe someone that really loves click-once could test contribute to get it to a 1.0 stage. And the best place for me to get the word out would be the add-in list, but I'd like to set expectations on its current state.

We can currently mark addins as prerelease in the YAML data for the purpose of downloading the NuGet package. Is this issue about bringing that indication forward to the GUI?

@daveaglick that's a good point displaying that it's prerelease under addins makes sense, As we now have the info. Perhaps under addins we even could suggest

#addin nuget:?package={addin}&prerelease

or for non preview

#addin nuget:?package={addin}

Just as nuget.org suggests

Install-Package Newtonsoft.Json -Pre

or for non preview

Install-Package Newtonsoft.Json
