The extension concept needs improvements:
* extensions should be signed; current situation where you have *only*
unsigned extensions trains users to accept the big red warning as the
normal case
* there are too much extensions, it is too easy to install them and
there is no working way to upgrade them. Users will end in lots of
extensions of unknown authors which were not updated for ages. This
will be a huge security problem
* extensions are difficultly to manage; they need a special (active)
installation routine and are indexed by non-human readable
keys. AFAIK, there does not exist a way to install them on the CLI
('-installExtension' does not work afais)
I hope, that firefox will implement the features natively so that most
extensions becomes unneeded.
