Only if you man the helpdesk for answering why users cannot install
adblock in firefox.

You cannot take extension additions away from within firefox. People
except that method to be available, and would not know to use the Fedora
Package management system to install these.

Unless you want to hack firefox so that "add extension" hooks into
PackageKit and all.
