Should have no affect since Node-Webkit doesn't currently support Chrome extensions. It only allows plugins like Java, flash, etc

"node-webkit is actually based on Chromium Content API (the same thing Chrome is based on), so it doesn't support Chromium extensions (which is not in Content layer)"

Does anyone know if this will affect future apps made in Node Webkit / Chromium? I really hope not, as I make heavy use of custom extensions in NW!

Correct, this change in upstream doesn't affect node-webkit.
