We have a handful of extensions packaged, though I'm not sure how well

My uers and I need Gnome extensions.
The ones used here are in the Fedora 37 repo, that's where I get them,
but there are some that won't run. The Extensions app. says they are not
compatable with the current version of Gnome. I've looked into this for
the Extension Freon. Freon actually queries the Gnome verion and
compares it to the version in a file that comes with the extensiion.
I've been able to fix the issue for F36 with:
sudo sed -i 's/40.0/42.2/g'
/usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/freon@UshakovVasilii_Github.yahoo.com/metadata.json
I've been waiting to see what the Gnome version in F37 will be.
This may be the problem with the others that won't run, but I haven't
had a chance to look into that yet.
I think the intension of this is to ensure that someone has tested the
extension to be sure it works then they put the current Gnome version in
the file to enable it to work. Of course this little patch bypasses that
assurance.
Have a Great Day!

Assuming for now that there isn't, I'm gonna propose this as a Final
release criterion to see how people feel about it, to come after
"Default panel functionality":
#####
=== GNOME extensions ===
On Fedora Workstation, it must be possible to install and remove
extensions by visiting https://extensions.gnome.org in the default web
browser, after installing the required browser extension.
#####
Do folks think this is important enough to block Final release on?
Desktop folks, do you consider it "supportable"?
Thanks!
