The W3C Browser Extension Community Group is currently working for a draft Browser Extensions API, which is future W3C standard for a standard set of API used for web browser extension, so once this standard in published on W3C website, is it possible to give support this API?

Please read information elsewhere on this very forum about WebExtensions and why we will not support these in Pale Moon.
Just because the W3C has a document about them doesn't mean we are going to or want to support them.
