Well, not really. In low-bandwidth situations you won't be able to find and download the add-on you need because it will take infinity to load Google. I've been down this road many times (think crappy mobile Internet with low transfer quotas). No, add-ons are not an option if you can't access them in the first place because someone took the setting you need away from you.
