I use the addon, but I have not reviewed the code. I remind you that
it is from the EFF, so for "eyeballs on the code" I think that you are
covered (but I make no promises).

The addon does slow down browsing some, and some internal Wikipedia
links get broken, but I think that it is a worthy tradeoff.
