I think many add-ons can be substituted by the use of greasemonkey and
scripts (probably not the safest way). At least for midori this is a
reasonable way (and the scripts working there with the help of
greasemonkey can be imported - i think)
Moreover, i think all add-ons which worked for FF pre-australis will
still continue to work. Some extensions, for essential, like
https-everywhere are already ported.
