I really hope WebExtensions will be capable of the type of extensions that is currently exclusive to Firefox, like Tree Style Tabs and DownThemAll, although I doubt it.
If not I'll keep using the last version with proper extension support for a long time, until an alternative comes.
- jacquesm 11y agoI couldn't get through my workday without tree tabs, it's the equivalent of an organized desk for me and without it I'd be thoroughly lost.
- steve-howard 11y agoI absolutely agree. This FAQ didn't answer the one Q that's most important to me, which is whether providing enough power to remake Tree Style Tabs and extensions like it is a goal.
- Qantourisc 11y agoThat seems to be answered in "Which add-ons will stop working when XUL/XPCOM is deprecated?" Also a question in IRC someone basically said: noscript won't work yet with the current API, and we are working with extension devs to make things possible.
- icebraining 11y agoSame here; Tree Style Tabs and Vimperator are indispensable, new HTML/CSS/JS features are not.
- pvdebbe 11y agoSame here. I'm very concerned that the new framework might reduce the extensions' capabilities down to Chrome's level. It's highly unusable -- for instance, in Chrome/Chromium they don't allow the user to manipulate New tab page, and there goes all the Vimium bindings when you try to navigate it over.
