µMatrix for Chromium

[Under development: usable, but persistence schema not finalized, will certainly change]

Forked from HTTP Switchboard.

Differences with HTTP Switchboard:

  • No pattern-based filtering -- use more advanced µBlock for this
  • Rules from broader scopes propagate to narrower scopes (HTTP Switchboard issue #227):
    • This means rules in global scope are ubiquitous, i.e. no longer sandboxed
    • See matrix as really 3D: evaluation order: Z, then X and Y, where
      • Z is the source hostname axis (aka "scope"), from narrower scopes to global scope
      • X is the request type axis: *, cookie, css, etc.
      • Y is the destination hostname axis (www.example.com, example.com, com, *)
    • Switching scopes in matrix popup does not create/delete scope, it just to allow user to modify rules in a specific scope
      • Rules in narrower scope(s) still exist and are enforced even if you have the global scope selected
  • Much needed code refactoring toward portability/efficiency
    • Big chunks of tired code have been removed, or replaced by small chunks of better code
    • There is no longer a hierarchical data structures for scopes/rules (major contribution toward code simplification)
    • Thus no need to manage the creation/deletion of scopes (and related settings)
    • All scopes virtually exist at all time.
    • The popup matrix simply activate whatever last scope level was in use
