This probably wouldn't work in the way you want, but the you could use Message Passing to communicate between extensions:
http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/messaging.html#external This would let you create one extension to manipulate others, but they would all need to be set up to receive the commands. But who knows.. if your extension got popular maybe you convince other devs to make their extensions work with it. I'd be up for giving it a go!
