 I am not convinced yet this is worth the effort. comment:18 is a good
 start, we should think about expanding it. E.g. there are clear security
 downsides in the sense that a new extension added to Tor Browser means a
 new attack vector and we would need to spend a considerable amount of time
 to review the code every new release contains and as we want to get away
 from automatic extensions updates anyway we would start to monitor
 upstream libraries for security fixes to the locally shipped libraries.
 That could easily result in quite some effort from our side...
