Not compatible with multiprocess

The title says it all.

It prevents Firefox to run as multiprocess (e10s / Electrolysis).

It generally works for me using:

browser.tabs.remote.autostart = true
browser.tabs.remote.force-enable = true

However there's a related (probably) quirk I'm noticing: When "Open Link in New Tab" a blank background tab gets opened and an "Opening..." dialog gets shown; After choosing "Open in browser as" the link is opened in the current foreground tab instead of the new background one. This may or may not be solved by #28.

Not sure about other people, but for me 99% of the time I was just using open in browser to open PDF's in the browser, which this (web)extension does too: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/always-preview-webextension/

@Mathnerd314 it seems that add on only works with a subset of the enforced downloads out there, it seems to not work when the mime type is set to octet-stream (some websites do this instead of the proper way of sending extra headers).

If everything works just as before, then why is it blacklisted?
