That's super interesting. I wonder why Mozilla didn't bother to do this for their own browser.

Mozilla’s priorities are messed up instead of doubling down on browser they are getting into a lot of half assed side projects.

It’s quite difficult to do and the solution is necessarily limited by the inability to modify WebKit.
