Depends on how it "goes too far". What I am, for example, afraid of is the possibility of removing Manifest V2 support. Maintaining the browser with such a significant change would get more and more difficult as time goes on.

I think that would be an example of a wildly unpopular change, yeah.

This is currently one of the biggest selling points for the browser, since Chrom(ium) is dropping support for v2... So I don't see that happening.

Sure hope so! But sadly, I think this is a possibility - iirc they were working on a different implementation of Manifest V3, so I fear that it might still happen eventually, "for the sake of security".
