It's both per-user and per-profile. You can install extensions under
.mozilla/extensions/$target_app_id which will be available for all
profiles. This is new in recent builds. See
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=311008
$target_app_id is defined by application.ini for your application.
target_app="firefox"
cat $(rpm -ql $target_app | grep application.ini) | grep ^ID
