Some reviewers already tried to harmonize this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=710386#c1
Using this approach: """ These extensions were built as subpackages of the main package "gnome-shell-extensions", and so named "gnome-shell-extensions-<foo>", as defined in the guidelines. It seemed logical to me to refer to "third-party" extensions under the name "gnome-shell-extension-<bar>", since the package would provide only one extension "a priori". Maybe we'll need to specify guidelines for such extensions, becoming more numerous. """ (see comment 3 of the same bug report).
This sounds like a valid approach to me.
A single element is not plural. End users are not going to know the difference between the "subpackages of the main package" and third party extensions, until this moment I did not so I had to look in to it myself. It seems the the "extensions" name is coming from the git repo where gnome has multiple extensions stored/developed. On the GnomeShell Extensions[1] page it describes the "gnome-shell-extension-tool" again a single extension with out the plural name.
