Comment:

 `status:confirmed`

 > and the question stands whether the new WebExtension API is actually
 less secure than the old XUL in that it has some kind of tied requirements
 to JavaScript for sites :/

 That's not the case since with Safest security setting JS is disabled for
 sites but the WebExtensions are working, it's only when that
 `about:config` switch is manually/extension-ally changed.

 Also I do stand with my (off-topic) comments about your setup being
 dangerous and useless.
