A fair amount of what people want wouldn't be all of Manifest V2, but just the part of onBeforeWebRequest() that's being removed.

Feels like it wouldn't be impossible to shoehorn some of the old functionality that extensions rely on into V3 without supporting V2 entirely I imagine?

Then again I'm sure Google went out of their way to make it as hard to do as they possibly can.
