The advantage should be more in user experience, since this would essentially put a halt to bundled crapware.

People who are willing to move to "Developer mode" will not be the people who will be confused in any way.

And how were people confused into dragging and dropping the extensions on the extension page before? That's what I'm saying. I see no security benefit over how it already works.
