It's trivial to edit the existing one and increase the 
version number from 1.6 to 2.0 (or even higher if you're 
anticipating some patches to 2.0).

Download the XPI, rename it to .ZIP, then you can open it 
with any unZIPper (I use Total Commander from 
http://www.ghisler.com but WinZIP will work, as will 
InfoZIP [true freeware]).  Use any text editor (e.g. 
notepad, metapad) to make the following changes.  

1. In "install.js" increment the version number from 
1.3.2 to 1.3.3.  
2. In "install.rdf" increment the version number to 1.3.3 
and in the "Firefox" section  change the number following 
em:maxVersion from 1.6 to 2.5 (anything 2.0 or larger 
will work).  (If you're using Mozilla instead of Firefox, 
then increment the maxVersion there.)  
3. In the "chrome" subdirectory inside the XPI/ZIP is 
copyurlplus.jar.  Rename this to copyurlplus.zip and edit 
"content\copyurlplus\content.rdf" to increment the 
version number to 1.3.3.  
4. Rename the .jar back to .ZIP and compress it back into 
the original XPI/ZIP.  
5. Rename the master ZIP back to copyurlplus-v1.3.3.xpi 
(note the incremented version number) 
6. Open the fixed .XPI in Firefox 2.
