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

edit: one of my previous attempt: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35229211

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

can a userscript run before the page loads...? afaik it's not possible, so the browser gets to make double requests.
