Well, since pretty much all firefox extensions are XUL extensions, you'd just 
have to re-implement XUL support in Galeon (which would simply turn it back 
into an even more bloated mozilla/firefox :).

Seriously, that's the whole purpose behind Galeon -- to rid the browser of all 
the cruft/overhead that XUL entailed, and replace it with a GTK interface.

Cheers!
