iOS8 extension needs own provisioning profile?

Question

I am starting an iOS 8 extension but I can\'t run it on my device. The error when trying to run it is:

No matching provisioning profiles found

I've located this documentation pertaining to App Extensions. If you read the bottom of page 20 if seems that using the same distribution certificate is actually suggested. I've gone ahead and changed my bundle identifier for the Today Extension to extend my applications. For example, com.DeveloperName.AppName.TodayExtension, created an App ID in the Dev Center to correspond with that, and created a distribution profile for it. My app +Quotes has successfully been updated by following these steps. I have not experienced any issues with the app or extension, but Xcode does seem to get a little confused when trying to auto assign the correct provisioning profiles for my extension now. Selecting them manually solves this.
