I think the better system is to rewrite the extensions. I have yet to
port a well-engineered Firefox extension. My opinion is that Epiphany's
extensions should strive to be of better quality and reliability than
their Firefox counterparts.

PyXPCOM would help immensely with porting extensions *very* easily.
Unfortunately, on Ubuntu at least, the python-xpcom package is missing a
vital component at the moment. Everything is technically feasible, and
the hard parts have been written. It just comes down to some skilled C
hacker taking a day or two to package everything together.
