Wow, that sucks. We use Chrome extensions (from source) to automate aspects of our customer service work, and we can't distribute these extensions on a hosted store.

So Firefox prevents this perfectly reasonable thing? WTF.

Not true. You can get them signed without publicly redistributing them.

Do I need permission from Mozilla to sign things? Or are there self-signed certificates? Does that means source distribution works, or do I have to use their "store"?
