We have no real practical way to do this other than package up the

precompiled binary and signed by mozilla and put into the add on package.
Aren't the addons that we ship in fedora a bunch of text files zipped
in an xpi archive? It is kind of awkward to send them back and forth,
but if there are no other binaries, does it go against a particular
policy?
Or we could decide that we trust Mozilla's code review process and
drop packaging addons altogether, as was suggested. At least the users
will receive updates faster.
