Why was it unavoidable with Firefox? Afaik updated Firefox extensions
were available upstream but where not pushed to Fedora along the Firefox
updates. And for Thunderbird it is even documented in Bodhi that a build
of an extension was available for an update of Thunderbird but not
pushed together with the Thunderbird update.

There do not seem to be strong arguments except that the current update
software or procedures are broken and package maintainers lack the power
to fix identified problems shortly.
