*AFAIK, extensions do not have an owner.  They just exist and are available
to everyone.*

*If you are having a particular problem (other than owner) with an
extension, it would be helpful to*

*post a script to illustrate that.  You should be able to drop the role
without any problem. *

*If an error occurs, then please advise on that and include the exact
message.*
