I like it--that would cover all of the "wanting different extensions active
for different profiles" examples I can think of.

That would work.  This is more or less how add-ons work in games (such as
World of Warcraft): whether something is installed is separate from whether
or not it's enabled.  This also opens up the possibility of some
"compatibility level" checking, where extensions that were known to break
with an update could be disabled as part of the update.  But that's getting
fancy.  Just a set of checkboxes in the list of installed extensions would
be a place to start.
