Permission Inspector
Snapshot of all the permissions used by each installed extension.
Why use Permission Inspector?
Extensions are powerful tools which can modify the browser using various features allowed by the browser. While installing an extension there is a permission prompt which lists all the browser features that will be accessed by the extension. Post that we have no way to know what an installed extension is accessing. Permission inspector bridges this gap and shows what all an extension can do to the browser.
Firefox Specific -
Firefox extension fetches details of all the installed extensions from addons.mozilla.org and improves the permission listing by adding host permissions
too.
Chrome specific -
Chrome extension allows you to disable/enable/uninstall the extension right from Permission Inspector page. (Chrome allows chrome.management.setEnabled
API)
