I think this very problem is being addressed in changes to the 7.4 Extension downloader. There's nothing to prevent you, as far as I know, from doing a "manual" install to ./Cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins. If you've previously installed SrvrPowerCtrl via the Extension Download, it might be safest to overwrite the ED installed version with the 'snapshot' version if you're kicking the tires.
