XULRunner by design does not ship with an extensions or plugin directory. This is a conscious choice by upstream and not one we're going to change. Extensions/plugins should be provided by either of: the system[1], the XR app (e.g. firefox) or the user's profile, not xulrunner itself. [1] this does not work just yet but I am working on this in a separate bug.
