WDYM by “see through”? If you go to the admin you see installed extensions already.
Probably five clicks thus far....

I don’t understand your point with the “default” flavor. Showing bundled extensions
surely becomes even more important as the number of flavors increase.
Does it?
Isn't the default xwiki-entreprise still the most common one?
How would you take in account the other flavours then? By listing them?
Re “visibility", I’ve already suggested an idea
in my reply.
Yes, indeed, listing the flavours.
I've opend this one:
http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-13430 not all extensions should
be perceived as installable
But I feel that something more could be done. Maybe a way to check if an
extension is installed in one's wiki (input your wiki name there and
keep it in a cookie, click a link or even produce an iframe)
What do others feel?
Also, the fact that it's called "extensions.xwiki.org" remains a hint
towards a wiki to be extended.
