Could you point to an official definition of the terms "plugin"
and "extension"?
I for one have never seen the need to enhance in any way a
standard release. I explicitly disable some longtime features
such as cookies, JavaScript, and site specified colors/backgrounds.
Go to <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in#Computing>. There are four
bullets; the first two are relevant.
Thank you. When I said "official definition" I should have said
something like "How does SeaMonkey (or Mozilla) define the
distinction between a 'plugin' and an 'extension' ?"
