I agree!

It's absolutely not obvious that LibreWolf users should
 - look for extension packages labeled "icecat"
 - set an undocumented environment variable to make the
   documented standard behavior of LibreWolf work

In particular, if it is possible to restore the standard behavior
(search for extensions under ~/.librewolf), that should be done.
