Comment (by sysrqb):
hm. I built a new apk with `extensions.logging.enabled = true` so we get
logging on first-run.

`Staged install of [email protected] [...] ready; waiting for
restart.`
This doesn't explain why it isn't loaded after restarting the app, but
this explains why it isn't loaded on first-run. With this install, it is
loaded after restarting the app.

I wonder what happens if I clear the app's cache/data and start fresh, but
toggle extension.logging.enabled so it is enabled on first-run but
disabled on second-run. Does the logging make a difference?
