Nice! I wrote the Chrome version -- I'll link the README to your extension for Firefox.

Showing/hiding the button or changing its state for the current tab seems so comparatively painful to do with a Firefox addon (versus Chrome's declarativeContent API) that the fork is no better than using the bookmarklet which does this, at the moment.

Ah! I was wondering how you did that (and what Firefox supported).

The Chrome page actions are a little buggy in UX -- when you click the icon, sometimes the URL autocomplete comes down. Maybe it is supposed to and you can put something there programmatically but I don't like it when it drops down. So a fixed icon might not be so bad.
