Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Very good option to keep your kodi nice and clean.
Describe the solution you'd like

An option to list & remove unused repositories
an option to list addons without any repo
Describe alternatives you've considered

There is an option for that in Kcleaner addon but I would really like to consolidate to one good maint tool

How about just not installing Repos that you dont need in the first place?

Well,
addons and addon devs are not always that stable. addons are bing deprecated and addon devs quit (especially if you use kodi for years.)
If addon is deprecated and i want to remove it, i dont always remember if i use anything else from its repo.

So to answer your question, no one is installing repositories he doesnt need.

But thank you for your kind advise

Its easy to tell if you use a repo, simply click Install from Repo, open a repo and check if any addons in that repo say Installed on it. I am against this option because I use a build that doesnt have everything installed unless you decide you want it installed, and would NOT want the wizard to delete the repo just because I might not be currently using an addon from that repo.
