If you want doing things the hard way, you can have it. But don't blame us if things are hard. ;-)

However, this does
not help with those extensions that are not at addons.mozilla.org

Right, those need to care about it differently - either they provide update URLs that tell those things the same way, or they need to ship a new version that marks itself compatible. They can have the same service as addons.mozilla.org add-ons but they need to provide all the infrastructure for it themselves. That's why hosting on AMO is usually the better way. I tend to not really trust add-ons any more that are not available there.
