A web extension is an unnecessary security risk. A userscript will do it just fine.

I actually have made it extensible, with closely coupled source of rules and domains; but then I lost it Edge forgot all my userscripts :(

Totally unrealistic. Instead either lock down extension permissions, use different browser profile or better yet use QubesOS for spinning up disposable browser VMs
