[Pkg-chromium-maint] Bug#890392: please add file in /etc/chromium.d to load extensions

[Michael Meskes]

Package: chromium
Version: 64.0.3282.119-2
Severity: wishlist

With more and more extensions being packaged it would be nice to have chromium
load them automatically instead of requiring user action. And the chromium
package seems to be the natural place for this.

It appears to me that it's sufficient to add the attached file to /etc/chromium.d.

Thanks

Michael
