We will continue to reach out via email to author, but have been not heard back after several months.  

Based on other video add-ons migrating, it should be technically possible to migrate.

This is a candidate if there isn't a webextension version by Firefox 57 to have an alternative(s) suggested, until migrated.

Alternatives are 100% for the user experience.  After they migrate if a user needs an add-on that didn't migrate, they can find one to meet their need. 

As soon as an add-on has a webextension version update, the add-on will be updated and re-enabled for the user.  Alternative suggestions go away automatically (since there is no UX for alternatives for enabled add-ons).
