I wonder if having the GetManifest() and Start() actually makes any
sense in the Firefox. Could be sufficient enough to pass the manifest
lookup and parsing to the portal and from the Firefox side only use
CreateSession(requested_webextension_name,
extension_id)->GetPipes()->Close() methods?

We've been discussing this with swick regarding to
https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/pull/705 - because it also
have to parse the webextension json files.

He also brought idea to have webextension itself in the flatpak where we
hit that the json files won't be accessible from the host system. The
webextensions then will have to implement dbus interface to pass pipes
(as it works with this patch) and the flatpak portal could stay in
between to make it happen. From the Firefox point of view it won't
require any additional changes. Only portal have to do all the lifting.
