Oh, and I'm sorry to be insistant in a place where I'm a non-expert, but 
I've never understood why GM_registerCommand was really necessay. I'm surely 
missing something, but I haven't yet found a menu command that can't be 
implemented as a colorful "click me" div with an even listener. And this 
avoids cross-platform issues of menu item creation. And it event listeners 
don't leak ;-).
