Surface a dataset's related items more visibly

Surface a dataset’s related items more visibly. Normally, a dataset page provides a text description of the dataset and then a bunch of “resources” in various formats. For very technical users, this is perfect. For everyone else, visualizations and applications are far more approachable. But they’re buried in the “Related” tab. This plugin simply surfaces those items above the “resources.”
