 Thanks for the merge! If you think you can make the changes for #27385
 easily in a way that will match the WebExtension and it sounds like a fun
 task please feel free to do so. I can help out here but it will also take
 me longer to get up to speed with how the coffeescript proxy works.

 There are other things like setting it up for localization that I can work
 on once the UI is set :)

 Also in case you're interested: I set up a way to test the browser-based
 proxy in snowbox:
 https://github.com/cohosh/snowbox/commit/6775554566b71325b5716a4794529f5a686cc403
 You probably already have a good setup but I found this useful for not
 having to install coffeescript on my host machine.
