You "hastily added support" in the last version and you already give up on doing this client side? I was very happy when I saw you added these filters just half an hour ago, so I'm concerned you are having second thoughts now! I had asked for this so often and have not noticed performance issues but even if I did, I'd trust this can be rectified. I'll zap you to help you get this fixed ;)

Why do we need a wot nip? Wot is subjective anyway, so there can't be a "right way" to do it. Service providers are fine, but I see it as a client's prerogative to choose how it's implemented.

I'm not completely giving up hope for it, but I want to explore other options before trying to optimize it further Mainly looking for a better way to do username search since trying to build and then index the WoT ends up killing most browsers that are not running on a desktop machine

I agree, but it’s worth the try to find / discover how this concept could be ‘standarized’ (or multiple, I dunno)
