Use hints result

[dawsers]

I see from the Changelog in 0.1.50a the browser API is no longer accessible in the hints content callbacks:

- Removed support for the `browser` API inside the hints content callbacks, e.g. `glide.hints.show({ pick: () => ... })`.
  This was the only place it was accessible and allowing access to the `browser` API from the content frame has security implications
  that need to be investigated further.

I would like to use the result of the hint selection, for example to open the URL in a background tab:

glide.keymaps.set("normal", "F", () => {
  glide.hints.show({
    action: async (target: any) => {
      if (target.href) {
        await browser.tabs.create({ url: target.href, active: false });
      }
    },
  });
}, { description: "open in background tab" });

but of course, browser is not accessible any more.

Is there any way to do this under the current restrictions? Thanks!

Unfortunately not that I'm aware of.

I'll try and think about what it'd take to securely allow access to browser from the content process.

Ideally I'd like to allow access to the glide API as well, but that'll likely end up being even more convoluted.
