That's what I thought. Detecting the click should be good enough in this

Ok.

We should experiment and then not bother more if it's complicated.

Good!

So I assigned these two code tickets to you:
- #14628: Migrate Firefox extension to Web Extensions
- #14629: DAVE for Google Chrome

Yeap, letting us now in due time is the best.
