Comment (by jdreed):

 OK, this is awesome.  If FF extension is installed, and the user doesn't
 yet have a FF profile, the extension's changes (e.g. home page, network
 .negotiate-auth.trusted-uris, etc) won't take effect until any file in
 /usr/lib/debathena-firefox-extension is touch(1)ed.  I don't know if this
 is the result of how we're shipping it, or what.  And I'm not sure how to
 fix it.  We should maybe consider looking at xul-ext-wrapper and other
 extensions that clearly work and see how it's done.
