First Release of Hachette, an extension packaging hacks for JS-encumbered websites

[jahoti]

As per the subject, this is to announce the release of Hachette 0.1, an 
extension which is designed to package small fixes for JS-encumbered 
websites in a single, configurable place. It can be downloaded from 
https://jahoti.tilde.team/AutumnProject.html (direct link: 
https://jahoti.tilde.team/browser-extensions/hjst_01.xpi ).

Some things to note:
* Please, please, please send an e-mail (perhaps tagging this mailing 
list) if you have bugs, gripes, or praise. This extension has had no 
external feedback to date, and if the consensus is it would be better 
not to bundle every single hack (i.e. small JS/CSS script) into one 
extension, then I will stop doing that.
* Hachette REPLACES the "load the onion" extension. If you are using 
this, it should be disabled or removed before installing Hachette. On 
IceCat, you will also need to do the following to allow multimedia files 
to load on The Onion website:
	- go to the "Searxes' Third-party Request Blocker" preferences (on the 
about:addons page)
        - scroll to the bottom
        - add the following lines to the textbox:

```
.theonion.com i.kinja-img.com
.theonion.com player.megaphone.fm
.theonion.com traffic.megaphone.fm
.theonion.com dcs.megaphone.fm
```
        - Click "Save" at the very bottom of the page


If Hachette is to continue being maintained and extended, there is also 
the question of where it would be best to put a code repository, bug 
tracking and updates manifest (or if it would be best to use 
addons.mozilla.org). Firstly, however, it seems appropriate to determine 
whether this approach to fixing websites is best.
