Agreed. That's part of the reason that I slow-walked it so far. From what I read, I probably could have published it that second day, but I want to understand the process more first. I guess that making it open source mitigates part of the concern. Limiting it to steemit and not steemitwallet does, too, but browser permissions could still be (rightfully) concerning.

A browser extension is definitely not the best way to be solving the problem. My main goal was just to have it for personal use until (hopefully) a real developer does something better.
