@ alexey_r
One extension I think you are missing, though, is Extension List Dumper ....
Extension List Dumper
http://sogame.awardspace.com/eldumper/
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3746
This extension adds a button ("Dump list") to the Add-ons window. When this button is pressed, a new window is opened with the list of installed extensions, themes or plugins (as plain text, as HTML or as CSV).
In addition to the name, some other information can be added to the list:
* The version number.
* The description.
* The homepage URL. ;)
* The add-on ID.
* The application (Firefox, Thunderbird...) min and max version.
* The add-on status (incompatible/disabled).
* The application version and the Operating System.
* The total number of installed add-ons.
* The date the list has been generated.
The list can be saved, printed and copied to the clipboard.
This extension is useful to keep a list of your extensions and themes, or when reporting a bug or a conflict to an extension author,
... or when telling about your extensions, at DonationCoder's forum 8)

Hi, everyone!
(BTW, I'm not actually "new" here. I just changed my nick to make it the same I use in other forums, but I only had about 20 posts in a couple of years, so it's not like I was a "regular" with my previous nickname)
Anyway, on to the subject, I'm afraid I have to confess that I may have a Firefox extensions addiction ... :P I didn't browse this whole topic, but it seems I may be the one who has more extensions installed :o
I currently have about 60 extensions running and surprisingly (or not) Firefox is very stable and responsive. The only "symptoms" are a slight delay in the start up, but no more than 3 or 4 seconds. Memory usage (Private Bytes as reported by Process Explorer) is fairly low too, a little less than 300 KB with over 70 tabs open.
I was planning to post the list here but it'd probably be overwhelming - and take a whole page of the thread. So instead I'm attaching the file with the list so anyone interested may download it. The list was generated by the extension suggested by Curt a couple of posts ago (thanks for the tip :Thmbsup: )
And please tell me I'm not the one with the most extensions. Someone has to come up and top me! ;D
Paul Keith:
Naw man, post away.
I checked the rar file and it's right at home with everyone else's.
I can't speak for everyone but usually what I think people or at least I consider lots of extensions are those with tons of toolbars + the extensions you listed.
To get an idea of this, go and download all the toolbars in the FF extensions page and create a self made ribbon for FF.
Btw, if you like the vertical tab bar of tabkit, you might want to check out Tree Style Tabs.
