Some reviewers already tried to harmonize this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=710386#c1

Using this approach:
"""
These extensions were built as subpackages of the main package
"gnome-shell-extensions", and so named "gnome-shell-extensions-<foo>",
as defined in the guidelines.
It seemed logical to me to refer to "third-party" extensions under the
name "gnome-shell-extension-<bar>", since the package would provide only
one extension "a priori". Maybe we'll need to specify guidelines for
such extensions, becoming more numerous.
"""
(see comment 3 of the same bug report).

This sounds like a valid approach to me.

Pierre
