Element picker not working on support.mozilla.org #512
Description
Activity
Sorry if my bug report is "invalid" but an non effective button without any error message can be assimiled as a bug. Maybe you can gray out the button and say in the tooltip why you disabled it.
uBO doesn't even know it is disabled, the browser bypasses uBO without telling the extension it does so.
A solution for that case would be trying to read the « extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains » and gray out these buttons on these pages, provided that reading a config value is allowed for addons.

Not possible.
If you think you know how to solve this, a pull request is welcome, otherwise this is going to be an endless thread asking someone else to spend time/effort on your ideas of what to do.
The browser is best placed to know when it bypasses extensions, so it makes sense to file an issue at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/home to ask that they provide a hint when extensions are bypassed, that would be one solution for all extensions, rather than asking each extensions to deal with this.

This is by-design extension behaviour, so either the use the hack listed in Privileged-Pages or file an issue on bugzilla.
