It is used to transfer links & cookies from browser, since WebExtension is used in both Firefox & Chrome.

@Rictusempra Thanks for your advice. Browser extension for capturing downloads is on my to-do list. I plan to write extension as long as I have completed main features of Photon. For now, you can try capturer extension for aria2 like Aria2-Integration and chrome-aria2-integration, since these extensions are also Photon compatible.

@alanzhangzm Just a hint: Opera & Edge also use webext with few differences
