Do you think this is a viable distribution model for web extensions, e.g. an alternative to the Chrome Web Store?

I think the point is that an alternative installation method is already provided in the browser

Yes, for user like me. I checked most of the extension I use. They directly come from github, and I generally don't update extension, so there is no fear of some sketchy website buying the extension company.

Of course it could be better, so why doesn't Apple show us all what really streamlined and well implemented third party app store support looks like?
