    Description

      Currently, if a XAR application depends on a JAR extension that is not installed and if the administrator has not the programming right, she cannot install the application.

      That's a shame because of plenty of "safe" applications (like the Blog) that could be installed without any risk.

      That's why I propose to introduce signed extensions, that could be installed with admin right only.
