Nice add-on for security's sake. However, I had my first run-in with an issue----this does not (yet) acknowledge some newer top-level domains that are out there, such as the .works domain. It tried correcting my URL to .work, and the bar that asks if I want to keep or discard the correction doesn't stay visible long enough to change it. I had to try it a few times until I was fast enough to click on the button to leave as-is. As the owner of a .works domain, I'm now concerned this and similar URL fixers may prevent clients from successfully reaching my website. Hopefully this issue catches up with devs soon.
