Disable modal may only impact unpacked extensions then. My apologies for the confusion.

Forking a text browser is impressive. Though to be honest the older I get the less energy and time I have to be picky. (And building Firefox was so painful I vowed to only make changes via extensions.)

It's not that a big deal to modify elinks, because it's a codebase way simpler than full blown browsers. But yes, it still a handful of hours of work, like modifying any software, so you have to actually find it fun to tinker with free software :)

Actually, my first attempt to fix my problem was to try to find in firefox codebase where it deletes the extensions loaded from sources, either at the end or the start of the session, I supposed, to shunt that "feature". But after a week a free time spent on it, I made no progress. The codebase and the architecture are just too gargantuan to be tinkered with - at least for me.
