Writing extensions is labor intensive. Even as a veteran web developer, I feel trepidation at the thought of diving into the boiler-plate code, wading through the XUL world, and restarting Firefox uncountable times. There are tools out there to mitigate some of these problems—like Ted Mielczarek’s Extension Wizard, and Mark Finkle’s FUEL—but they feel like fresh frosting on a stale, left-out-since-last-Thursday birthday cake.
