Extension uplift: nominations for evaluation
Basic idea is that the Product team, UE team can investigate nominations further to evaluate for possible inclusion in Firefox.
Current nominiations
- URLFixer
- LocationBar²
- Firebug
- Console² (Myk's nomination)
- Site Specific Prefs (Myk's extension)
- Investigate download manager extensions (Brendan)
- Print Hint (another Myk nomination)
- TableTools (not this specific implementation, which is cumbersome to use, but some mechanism for letting users do a couple of common high-value operations on tables, in particular sorting them)
- Searchbar Autosizer - Nominated by johnath both for the autosizing search bar, and for the preference to clear bar after search.
Any new extensions to consider?
- Context Search - Nominated by steve england for changing the "Web Search for..." context item into a menu containing your Mycroft search plugins, so allows you to easily decide which search engine you use. Firefox's default is to use the currently selected search plugin only. UI change in right click context menu only when some text is highlighted.
- Resizable Form Fields - Lets the user resize form elements. Useful for making text areas larger when writing lots or after increasing font sizes. No UI needed. (Nominated by steve england)
- Paste & Go 2 - Allows the user to paste clipboard text into either the search bar or URL bar and automagically start the browser to act upon the pasted data. UI change only to right click context menu in URL bar and Search bar. (Nominated by steve england).
