Currently, each extension is supposed to have an 'enable' option and optionally enable_editor or enable_shell, to "to apply it only to editor/shell windows" (config-extensions.def comment). I think the rule should be changed (see below).
Currently, the file itself does not follow its own rule. Most editor-only options only have enable and not enable_editor. One have enable and enable_shell=False, presumably to exclude the shell, but a user could override False with True, in the user config-extensions, which would not be valid. The file should be changed to follow the current or altered rule.
I think that the requirement should be for the presence of any one of the enable options. An extension that is only valid for the editor should simply have enable_editor. Ditto for enable_shell. Enable by itself would globally turn the extension on or all for all windows, include output windows. It is possible that we might need an enable_output option too.
