 - [Access your data for all websites](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/permission-request-messages-firefox-extensions?as=u&utm_source=inproduct#w_access-your-data-for-all-websites): this is necessary in order to be able to append elements (= the neovim iframe) to the DOM.
 - [Exchange messages with programs other than Firefox](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/permission-request-messages-firefox-extensions?as=u#w_exchange-messages-with-programs-other-than-firefox): this is necessary in order to be able to start neovim instances.
-- [Access browser tabs](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/permission-request-messages-firefox-extensions?as=u#w_access-browser-tabs): This is required in order to find out what the current tab is, to update the Firenvim browser icon when moving to/from a tab where Firenvim has been disabled and to emulate browser keybindings that have been assigned to Firenvim.
