Such signing requirement doesn't let the user run a modified copy of an 
extension on their own computer, until the user figures out how to disable it. 
IceCat folks would probably just disable the signing requirement by default.

My understanding is that Firefox just will tell the user that an add-on that is going to be installed is either signed or not signed. But I have not read the article.
