We've just been living with the fact that the extension frickin' crashes anytime it's installed or updated, to the point where the extension description itself contains a workaround for the crash, which is just sad. We should troubleshoot and fix the error.

extension: Don't recommend Alt-F2 r
4cca812 
There is currently a fantastically annoying bug in Gnome Shell [1] that
results in a crash if you do an `r' with *any* windows open, so people are
crashing their systems by following the instructions in our
description. Drop our gs restart recommendation for now (and hopefully
forever since we should really just fix the error instead of recommending a
gs restart #50).

Fixes #49
