Sure but given that extensions can modify pretty much anything that
would imply documenting every code change.
Well, in an ideal world.... :)
But, even given reality, there's some amount of pragmatic information which
could help without needing to go that far. See Firefox again for an example:
https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2013/09/30/compatibility-for-firefox-25/
And there's this statement:
Please let me know in the comments if there’s anything
missing or incorrect on these lists. If your add-on breaks on Firefox 25,
I’d like to know.
Which, alone, is pretty awesome. Obviously that takes a level of commitment,
including (possibly a lot of) someone's time, but I kind of think that
investment would pay off.
I found this
http://blog.fpmurphy.com/2011/11/updating-gnome-shell-extensions-to-work-...
for Gnome 3.2, but unfortunately nothing like it for newer releases.
