Description
### Please confirm these before moving forward
- [X] I have searched for my feature proposal and have not found a work-in-progress/duplicate/resolved/discarded issue.
- [X] This proposal is a completely new feature. If you want to suggest an improvement or an enhancement, please use [this template](https://github.com/marticliment/WingetUI/issues/new?assignees=marticliment&labels=enhancement&projects=&template=enhancement-improvement.yml&title=%5BENHANCEMENT%5D+%28Enter+your+description+here%29)
### Describe the new feature
To be clear, the feature being suggested here is not to allow installation/updates to existing extensions.
However, it would be great to be able to have extensions for browsers checked to see if any are out-of-date, when X browser hasn't been launched in a while (extensions don't update unless X browser gets launched to check for updates).
\* X = Chrome, Edge, Firefox, etc.
### Describe how this new feature could help users.
While extensions not being updated don't pose an initial threat, it's nice to have a single place to see if everything is up-to-date (especially if X browser hasn't been launched in a long time to update the extensions on it)
If you think this is a good idea, I can work on a PoC script that grabs extension data only for installed browsers (I've been working on a script already that audits extensions for all browsers, installed or portable, so it's not much work for me to do).
