This sounds like something to watch closely. A version of Firefox being developed at George Mason University (I used to work there!) that will ease access to scholarly resources and museum collections. It is true that for my work the web browser has now become my primary research tool and I’ve often through if enhancements I would like it to have. I even started looking at how extensions were created with the idea of trying to work some stuff up, but I never got to it, and now it looks like I won’t have to. Procrastination ain’t all bad.
