This is a tracking bug to see if we can get Mega to work as a WebExtension. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1189385#c19 for initial requests from the add-on developer, who's interested in: 1) Something equivalent to OS.File 2) native.js (which would help surrogating #1 until it's done as a "regular" WebExtension API, eventually)

For OS.File I think something like bug 1246236 would work. The tracking of 2) sounds like its covered by the Embedded Extension https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Embedded_WebExtensions so altering the blockers accordingly

I believe MEGA is now a WebExtension, so we'll close this.

Hi Andy, yes there is a WebExtension, but it does lack support to download files bigger than ~1GB (or whatever other size - bigger or smaller - that can fit in memory), so i think that ideally this bug should not be closed until Firefox provides some reliably mechanism to download bigger files.
That's bug 1323414 I believe, probably tracking that one is enough.
Yeah, looks like it, thanks for pointing me to it!
