I just talked with our extension specialist. Provided that both extensions have
the same identifier (that is are recognized as the same extension different but
different versions) it should be like this:

Lets assume in the user profile there is a older version 0.8 and a new office
installation comes along with a 1.0 version of the very same extension. Then,
since the extensions in the user profile have precedence over the one from the
installation, the 0.8 version will win.
However...
Sooner or later the update mechanism will see that there is a newer version of
the very same extension found in the installation itself (the pre-bundled 1.0
version) and will give a 'update available' notification. If the user chooses to
allow that update then the pre-bundled version will be copied to the user
preferences as well and replace the older version there. This will finally
resulting in the 1.0 version being in the installation AND the user preferences
and the one in the latter place will get normal update notifications as if the
user had installed it manually.
