Add-ons are a well-known concept in the world of web browsers, and this concept [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Add-ons has been added to Firefox OS too]. A single Firefox OS add-on can extend just one app, several, or all of them.  As a prototype there is an app on the latest builds of FirefoxOS called HackerSpace which holds add-ons.  We would like to deprecate that app and replace it with the Marketplace officially supporting add-ons.
