chromexup does not have any influence on extensions installed manually or via the Web Store.

So you have no intention in supporting it?

This is a slightly different use case. Since extensions outside of the Web Store are not published in one single source, you would need to configure different methods to parse the extension version for update checks and to download the extension afterwards. Most of them are probably available in GitHub and it would work, but there is hardly a way you can do it for all possible web sites.
You have the same issue with the official Google Chrome browser as you manually need to update all such extensions.
Most probably I won't implement this but I will keep the issue open just in case.

I would say git is the second best option for delivering extensions, as google has no control in this case. If an extension is removed from the web store for whatever reason, it can still be updated using git. Now, this would require extension developers to standardize releases. A latest tag could be updated as new releases are made. There may be a more feasible option though.

What if the config file could take file paths or urls instead of just extension ids?
eg:
uBlockOrigin = cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm
unpackedext = ~/src/unpackedext
AdNauseam = https://github.com/dhowe/AdNauseam.git
Since paths/urls always contain a /
, disambiguating them is easy.
