Footiefox extension isnt portable

I just discovered that the footiefox extension isnt portable.
It stores its icons and stuff in your user folder.
Is there any "these extensions aren't portable"-list?
One could start one...

I don't see why an extension

I don't see why an extension would explicitly store its things in %APPDATA% or ~ when a normal Firefox would store things there anyway.

With the boatload of extensions I've used, I've never had a problem beyond the drive letter issue.

Vintage!

today

I emailed the developer of footiefox and asked whether one could change the temo folder location but he said no.
It seems hardcoded.
