We have a private "BETA" version of our extension in the web store that we post to first. This only has a small set of BETA users, where we can test all new changes. After validation there, we publish to the public extension (with the 1000s of users). This allows us to test the actual update from the web store. I know there are restrictions about having 2 of the same app, but with one being private and we made it clear in the description what the purpose is, it seems Google allows this.
On this topic, a really nice feature add to the Chrome web store would be to be able to post a new release to "release groups" in the same listing. So, we could create a "test" or "beta" group and then we could decide to post the release to small group before full public. This is how most software releases work in other areas.
