Nice experience. The thing I'm missing is I like to leave voice messages. I notice when I try that using this extension, the webapp tells me that I need to approve it's request to access my mic (and camera) but the button to approve, usually the one that drops down from the url bar never appears so I can't approve the request and so am permission limited from voice / video message sending. Would be nice if I could approve from settings or give approval on primary device but I think this might be beyond what the extension writer is able to do as that might be a whatsapp related security function.

Thanks for the good rating! For your comment about the microphone, in fact Thunderbird does not include the same popup as Firefox to grant permissions to websites. So the request to microphone access is simply not displayed. And it is not something that can be changed from an add-on AFAIK. You may grant permanent access to the microphone by setting the "permissions.default.microphone" to 1 in advanced settings, but I highly discourage you to do it as it bypasses a basic security protection.
