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.
