The situation with epiphany-extensions is that while it's not itself in
the Gnome desktop suite, it tracks a module (epiphany) that is in the
desktop, and thus there will always be a branch for an epiphany branch,
plus trunk to track epiphany trunk. So only having one branch of e-e on
d-l is a bit inconvenient.
I guess the same issue now exists for other modules in the Gnome
desktop, e.g. gedit with gedit-plugins and seahorse with
seahorse-plugins ?
