This is why I started using Chromium instead of Chrome -- Chrome forces you now to use (and pay for!) the web store (it's impossible to install extensions not hosted by Google, if you're running on Windows because "think of the users!"[1]) and if your extension doesn't get along with any of their policies (i.e. the extensions listed here), then Chrome users can't use it at all. Super-awesome, Google.
Chromium doesn't (at the moment) have these restrictions.
