Not using WebExtensions #1

Closed allanlw closed 6 years ago

This is a Jetpack addon. It needs to be using WebExtensions if it ever wants to be useful.

a581b98 ports to jpm from cfx. bf172b1 removes the jquery dependency.

The next step is to create an embedded WebExtension, and port the functionality into it. It's not clear if the response body inspection is possible using WebExtensions.

Now that the add-on has been accepted to the add-on store, the major blocker for this is Bug 1255894 - Support a webRequest.onResponseData event to filter HTTP response bytes as they come. All of the other functionality can be ported to web extensions with current interfaces.

Well 2bad907f definitely solved that.. perhaps a bit too late.
