Goal:
- for all tabs and browser window, a div (over content) with controls, indicators (whatever).
- replaces 'addon-bar' sorts of patterns.
EXAMPLES:
- top / bottom of content buttons, tab counts, etc. Omnipresent, but changable content.
Possible paths (with hiccups):
- CHROME. do it all in chrome: https://github.com/jchhikara/Context-menu-search/blob/search-with-icon/index.js#L157 . XUL element.
(Probably fast, requires xul knowledge. Not described)
- PageMod: with a fixed position div. Doesn't work on XUL pages. Seems to load 'late'.
- Panel? (non transparent)
- Avoid the pattern, try something else.
It feels like the addon system should make this one awesome, but currently does not.
