Hello:

I have created a gnome shell extension which provides a panel menu
button
that will reload an extension under a Wayland or Xorg session. It seems
to do 
the job under Fedora 24 GS 3.20 and Fedora 25 Beta GS 3.22.  The
updated
gnome-shell-extension-tool is not available in a distribution yet.  I
grabbed a
copy of the gnome-shell-extension-tool from the gnome shell repository
and 
included it as a local copy in the extension.  When the tool is made
available I 
will update the extension.

https://github.com/nls1729/acme-code

Download the zip file of the repository. Uncompress the zip file
acme-code-master.zip. 

cd acme-code-master/extension-reloader
make zip-file

Install the extension zip-file and enable the extension.

The Reload menu will list all installed extensions. Selecting an
extension from
the menu will execute the local copy of gnome-shell-extension-tool to
reload
the selected extension.

If you find this usable let me know and I will upload it to the
extension website.

Enjoy,
Norman
