Re: Why no extension system?

[Adam Dingle <adam medovina org>]

Epiphany actually used to have a plugin system, and a number of plugins were available.  It was removed around 4 years ago, around the time of the port to WebKit 2 if I remember correctly.  There was some thought about porting the old native code plugin system to libpeas, but the bug for that was ultimately closed as WONTFIX:

I asked about this in a mailing list thread a few years ago, by the way:

I still think any extension system (native or otherwise) would be a good thing.
