I have an msi installer that installs an extension for firefox. It
works fine when directly run on the user's machine. But I t does not
install when the MSI is pushed as a GPO. I install the global
extension by running firefox.exe -install-global-extension
<myextn.xpi> through the installer as a custom action.

Any known issues with installing global extensions via GPO?

It appears that when you install a global extension using firefox.exe -
install-global-extension command, it will not go to completion unless
a default profile exists for the user running the install. So, I now
call firefox.exe -CreateProfile default, before firefox -install-
global-extension, and it works fine!!
