I am somehow used to check whether software XYZ has any packaged
extensions by typing "apt-cache show XYZ-", then using my shell
completion features to display the available packages.

For this reason, and probably some other, less conscious ones, I quite
like the idea to have all iceweasel extensions in the same namespace.
