Description Ryan Lerch 2014-03-04 18:32:56 UTC 
Currently, it is possible to search for extensions that aren't compatible with the current shell version. As well, when searching this way, the website shows the on / off slider, and allows me to click it, bringing up the shell notification if i want to install.

However, it does not install the ext.

More-so with the introduction of the org.gnome.shell disable-extension-version-validation setting, i should be able to run these extensions (if they work of course)
