Multiprocess support? about firetitle HOT 7 CLOSED

I'm currently working on a web-extension version of this add-on.
It's not as polished as this xul-overlay version, but at least, we should be able to continue using most of the functionalities on most of the websites…
So, multiprocess support probably won't be implemented for this xul-overlay version, but will be supported on the webextension version.

I'm closing this bug since it was about multiprocess support, which isn't relevant now that only webextensions are allowed.

Hi hmijail, and thanks for your interest.

I'd like to fix that, unfortunately, this would require a rewrite of the add-on from xul api to web-extension framework (which seems fine and something TODO), but I don't think this framework allows an extension to access/change the browser's titlebar content. :(

If you know a way to change the window's title with webextensions, please tell me how to do that!

In case it helps, I opened a feature request for such a WebExtension API. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1333376

I hope it will.
Thanks!

The resolution of Mozilla bug 1333376 was limited – to prefixing (prefacing).

So we have a more recent bug, an enhancement request:
