Yes, I doubt it would have "worked" otherwise (in the sense that the

Thanks, that works and is consistent with what I thought was happening
-- I was unsure of the syntax here. Yes, the "fix" I had before did
produce errors in the console, which presumably also displaced the
'org-protocol:...' string. Not sure what upgrade to the browser has
caused this string to be rendered now ...

That extension looks useful -- though I am currently interested in
extracting only a certain amount of information from pages. But I take
your point about the security risk.
