   Interestingly 1 of my extensions, FireFTP 1.0.7, did not seem to have    
   any compatibility problems at all; Addon Manager showed it as installed    
   and Enabled when I installed this build of SM.   
      
   What a shame it does not work... Guess I'll have to wait and see if it    
   gets updated in the near future.
