Why?
At the time, because Feedly quit supporting the older subscribe link, and that needed to be changed, though they did end up restoring support later.
Unfortunately, a poor choice I made regarding how the keys were added to the Firefox config store* made upgrading the extension risky, so I held off based on that and the additional requirement for code signing on newer versions.
Now, the problem is that I use platform APIs that aren't supported in the new extension model. var {Cc, Ci} = require("chrome");
is pretty much verbatim what they say the new model doesn't support, and is what I used to register the handler.
I am absolutely happy to have someone fork this, though they should fix the keystore issue I describe below, probably by saving off the ID of the handler that this add-on manages into an add-on-specific key.
And the behavior is available in Feedly Notifier, who did effectively fork this with his inclusion of the code. Assuming he doesn't run into a support issue with the chrome APIs being used, then that's where I'd go for this functionality.
