Request: Composer manager plugin in WHM

If I search these forums for 'Composer' (the php dependency manager) there are multiple examples, over many years, of people wrestling to make it work successfully.

Given that Composer is pretty much required for anyone working with PHP, I think that it would help us all a lot if Composer was available as a plugin or similar inside of WHM.

Yes, there is official documentation on this topic: https://docs.cpanel.net/knowledge-base/web-services/how-to-set-up-php-composer/ - but having Composer as a plugin would be so much more helpful.

There's no reference to Composer in your feature requests: https://features.cpanel.net/tabs/11-planned-roadmap

  Hey there!  Would you like me to get this added to the features or did you want to submit that?  I currently don't see any requests internally for this either.
