Is this the behavior on desktop as well, because I'm a big fan of isolating extension processes. It would be good for both security and performance.
And I'm having a hard time figuring out in Firefox's Manifest V3 what APIs would break, other than maybe sharing JS context between the page and content scripts? But that's not a great way to build extensions anyway, I sort of feel? You're better off directly injecting scripts if you need access to the page's JS context.
:shrug: but there might be complexity that I'm not seeing.
