Comment (by acat):
Not completely sure about this one.
What I had thought was: by default in Tor Browser we only have private
windows, so it makes sense to always enable extensions. Otherwise from the
user perspective it will be broken behaviour: they might install an
extension and see no change (icons, etc.), then maybe file bugs.
It may work as a protection against something that we don't support:
installing extensions others than the shipped ones. But, at the end of the
day, we do not forbid installing extensions either, so this change might
be surprising for users.
