that would work for Fedora - if it can be guaranteed that they sign new
versions quickly. Immagine if one of our plugins had a security hole and
mozilla would need days or weeks to sign it. As far as I can see Fedora 
specific extensions would have to be listed which means they would go 
through manual code review at mozilla.

For me this appears the only possibility and I suspect there are more 
Fedora users like me maintaining their own Firefox extensions. 

So will we get a firefox-unbranded package?
