agree with @caesar - modifying the page content is *not* the way to go and the dev response is lacking - it would be easy enough to add the option to change the color of the tool-bar icon and add a link to the resource in its context menu

This addon inserts a 'badge' into the webpage when it finds an article, rather than using its toolbar icon.
This is problematic because addons should not modify webpage content unnecessarily. It makes it hard to distinguish between browser chrome and webpage content, which can make phishing easier.
Additionally, though the addon does have a toolbar icon, it does not provide access to the discovered articles and so is useless and simply wastes screen real-estate.

If these issues were fixed this would be a 5-star review!

Thanks for your feedback, Caesar. You're right, there are certainly downsides to injecting the button directly into the page content. That said, a lot of our users are not very technically experienced, and we found in testing that they found the button much easier to find and use when it was directly on the page they were reading. We talked about it a lot, and in the end we had to go with the real-world usability for our audience over the more abstract best-practice principles.
