Apple Preparing to Launch 'Safari Extensions Gallery'

Apple today sent out an email to registered developers reminding them to submit their Safari 5 extensions for consideration for inclusion in the company's "Safari Extensions Gallery".
We'll soon be launching the Safari Extensions Gallery, a new destination that provides you with an opportunity to increase the visibility of your Safari extension beyond your website.
The Safari Extensions Gallery will feature selected extensions that offer an innovative user experience. And a one-click installation process will allow users to seamlessly install extensions from a developer's website without ever having to leave the Gallery.
Have your extension considered for the Safari Extensions Gallery. Submit your extension download URL and supporting metadata today.
In mid-June, the company officially invited developers to submit their Safari extensions, noting that the gallery would be coming "later this summer". While still has not provided an official date for the launch, it does appear to be approaching in the relatively near future.
Interested developers can find out more in Apple's Safari Dev Center.

(View all)Now the question is will apple keep the same death grip on extensions as it does on ios app's?
Of course they will have the same kind of quality assurance. However, you don't have to use their gallery to spread your extension. It's a good thing IMO.
Nice. However, there is still two things I need to be able to switch back to Safari: an AwesomeBar and tabs on top.
Safari 5 has an awesomebarAdBlock Please. Or should I say iAdBlock.

You're holding it wrong.
