[Request] Add Addon Manifest Validation

I’ve recently created an addon/DLC for Mannequin to give characters bushy tails, and I’d like to suggest including a form of manifest validation in the Developer Mode.

Initially, I had a configuration in which componentName was misspelled as compomentName; however, I didn’t discover this type for some time, wondering why Mannequin would keep spinning in a frozen state. Once I discovered the type, the import worked as expected.

I think it would be beneficial to include a form of manifest validation that would present an error if a specific key is invalid or cannot be found, to prevent these sorts of problems.

Understood. Will make an alert box that shows the error and points out where the errors at as accurate as we can.
