Thanks for your input. But:

  1. This extension is about removing parts of the URL, not adding them.
  2. In the vast majority of cases, "www.domain.com" is the same as "domain.com".

So: not gonna happen.

I understand your point of view, however I regularly encounter a site where I am in say forum.domain.com, and want to go to www.domain.com, but my uppity friend fails because domain.com does not work.

So maybe, from a user perspective:

1. This extension is about moving to other parts of a site

2. In cases where domain.com is not supported, but www.domain.com is, I would like uppity to stay my friend.

I think that it should be another extension or even firefox itself to add the www. to the address if domain.com doesn't exist.

I would also vote to NOT add that functionality to this extension. I think it would make using it more confusing and potentially function undesirably.
