Could this be made to work on any site with Queue-It? #1

Ticketmaster uses a 3rd party queueing system called Queue-It (https://queue-it.com/). It would be really cool if the extension could be enabled on other Queue-It sites either manually or with an allowlist. The same technique you're using here works on things like the Disney Queue-It deployment as well.

That's an interesting idea! I tried to keep this pretty narrowly scoped, since we're relying on two internal implementation details here:

Expanding support to one or another site would be fairly easy, since we could sniff out both of these things manually, but creating a general solution might be trickier.

Ah yeah, that makes sense! Disneyland is using Queue-It right now for tickets: https://queue.disneyparks.disney.go.com/?c=disneyparks&e=dlrmagickey1116&t=https%3A%2F%2Fdisneyland.disney.go.com%2Fpasses%2F

From what I can see the page structure is pretty similar to the ticketmaster queue. In case that link isn't working anymore or they take the queue down I grabbed a snapshot of it: https://gist.github.com/arthurlockman/623da3e730fadc55fab716fd2ad388fd
