I think you don't differentiate between disable and remove ? or you don't
understand what I wrote ?
Btw why are you are so eager to close this report ?

I will explain to you the situation, suppose you have a Linux machine with 3
users (one admin and two normal users), if admin want to disable some
extensions installed by package manager, should he remove them totally ? No !
this will remove the extension also for other users !
What the admin want is to disable temporary some extensions for only himself
and other users should still have access to extensions.
