I think there's probably a third way. It used to be that Firefox extensions
broke with every update, but now that really rarely happens. That's partly
because the base program has kind of stablized, but also because there's a
nice developer ecosystem, with good supporting documentation and tons of
tutorials. I think it's important to grow that for Gnome Shell, with good
communication about migrating extensions as new versions come out.
