For information, when there is bug reported on extension, we close it as
not our bug, so may be it would be a better user experience to give the
contact of the extension owner to report the issue.

Would it be possible to remove the warning about the fact that the
extension has not been updated since xx time. Most of the time
extensions are working from one version to another.
