Improve coordination with native media players on Windows #143

"A quick toggle, maybe with a button or right click menu, to enable/disable Media Keys would be nice, because it takes priority over my local music player (foobar2000) even when I don't have any of the supported websites opened." -Reviewer

The reviewer here. Thanks for looking into it.

To answer your question on the review, I am on Windows indeed. Good point about embedded Youtube videos, too. That's most likely the problem. They're everywhere. Didn't even think about those because I use your Add-On exclusively for Spotify.

It would be nice if I could set it to lower priority than my local media player. Or the option to disable everything but Spotify would also be neat. Right now I'm simply disabling the Add-On in the Add-On Manager, whenever I have to.

I love your Add-On anyway, since there's simply no alternative to it. When Spotify changed their website recently, I compiled it myself and loaded it temporarily via about:debugging because I just couldn't wait for the update to go through on Mozilla. 😄
