When a shared extension is installed it is possible for the user to export the
extension to a local directory and reinstall it below My Extensions. This is bad
because:

a) An Extension Provider might not want that to happen (possible licensing 
problem)
b) A user might make his office use outdated extensions (e.g. Templates which a
provided company wide could be copied and used. When the company extensions are
updated the user would miss the update). This can very easily happen as users
tend to speed up things. On a slow network this becomes likely to happen.

Probably this should be implemented on a "per Extension" basis, meaning this is
a property of an extension and should not be "smart handled" by just
interpreting access rights.

Note that unopkg should have a switch to display such attributes as well.
