Can you open an issue for each of these items? Personally, I'd rather install the GNOME extensions I want from Guix packages rather than from extentions.gnome.org via a browser add-on, but it would be great to have either method work. I expect that the people who work on our icecat package (e.g. Mark Weaver) are already aware of 68, but a report won't hurt. All the best, Jack
