 On the whole, these changes seem fine.  I left two comments on the pull.

 We could perhaps add some more obvious instructions to enable it if it's a
 usability problem.

 I agree with the cypherpunk that it should default to "on" since this
 isn't the same as browsing to a webpage that potentially has a snowflake
 embed and could start proxying traffic against the user's will; here we
 have explicit interaction of installing the extension.
