Description Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 2008-02-17 18:51:54 UTC 
Actually the Tools->Extensions menu is an extension in itself, shipped in epiphany-extensions. This is not ideal since every extension out there will be depending on another extension to work.

It should be part of Epiphany itself, so extensions not shipped by epiphany-extensions can easily be enabled without needing to require e-e.
Comment 1 Reinout van Schouwen 2008-02-18 15:45:53 UTC 
Agreed, but it should be done in such a way that no Tools menu is visible when no extensions are installed, just like the current default.
Comment 2 Diego Escalante Urrelo (not reading bugmail) 2012-01-29 06:52:44 UTC 
It will be integrated, when bug #646597 is done.
Comment 3 Xan Lopez 2012-10-08 17:10:51 UTC 
The old style extensions have been removed from ephy. When we add extension support again we'll definitely make their management a core feature.
