I was too quick to upload my extension with the id still left at "my_example_extension". Maybe that exact id should be invalid for people like me that act a little too impulsively.

The id and name in the manifest could possibly feature prominently in the following page where you input "What's New" before hitting accept and sending the extension for review. Like a preview you have to accept.

I don't see a way to change it or even delete the extension on the website to re-upload it as a new extension.

Agree that it should be more prominent.

For now should I just delete the add-on so you can start fresh?

If I have to delete it eventually anyway? Then yes go ahead.

Assume it wont be possible to change id. Which seems sensible.

Ok, deleted it. I opened a separated issue to make the id visible on the upload page (#47).

I also created a placeholder extension with the example id, to prevent others from doing the same.

Thanks for the report
