The builtin firefox addon update system works far faster for most desktop users

What about... Fedora livecd spins? Would it make sense to put in
end-user oriented plugins in our repository so that the people making
spins can make use of them in the live image experiences?

I would say yes here, but of course addons are often updated and even if you did
push out an addon in a livecd spin the addons would up out of date quickly. If
the user was keeping persistent state with a livecd spin they may prefer using
the firefox installed addons directly in the user's profile. The conflict of
having both install choices is present there too if the persistent state stuff
gets up to speed.
