Add the addon to https://ankiweb.net/shared/addons/2.1?

It would be great for the addon to be able to be installed directly from within Anki, without having to go into hidden directories, copy, unzip. As it now does everything from config, is there a reason why it hasn't been uploaded? I had a quick look and from what I can tell there is already one existing custom sync addon there, though it is a little sneaky in that the description is not in English.

I didn't see anything in the terms that suggests setting an alternative sync server is against the T&C, and it would be very handy for me to have this.

I can take on the responsibility for keeping it up to date and supporting it, if you prefer not to take that on.

I don't have anything against putting it on AnkiWeb, I just didn't know how well the addon would work since it modifies an existing form, which could, in theory, be prone to frequent breakage if said form was being changed upstream frequently. Since it's been working well so far, I don't think there's anything wrong with putting it. The addon could be easily rewritten not to modify the settings form anyway, I just felt it would look better that way.
