Firefox 4 is supposed to keep extension as XPI and not extract them. For the most part, this works as intended; however, I have encountered three extensions that Firefox simply will not keep in XPI and extracts them every time. These are:
- FEBE 7.0b201010121030; http://softwarebychuck.com/febe/febe70.html
- Flashblock 1.5.14.2; https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/433/
- Console2 0.7a4; http://console2.mozdev.org (scroll down a bit to find installation link for "Console² 0.7dev" build)
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create and start Firefox with a new profile
2. Install the above listed extensions and restart
3. Open the relevant extensions folder and notice that the above three extensions have been extracted.

Extensions can request to get unpacked by adding the following line to the install.rdf:
<em:unpack>true</em:unpack>
All those extensions make use of it. Marking as invalid.
