[Firefox] Whitelist mode doesn't work; custom user-agent is still applied on some sites #238

With the extension set to "white-list mode", custom user-agent should only be applied to the sites listed in the white-list. I have that list set to foobar.doesnotexist.com, so the custom user-agent should never be applied. However, when navigating to meet.google.com, the extension icon is orange, indicating that custom user-agent is applied. This doesn't happen when navigating to other sites such as github.com, where the extension icon is orange-blue, indicating that the site is ignored.

Why does this occur, and what makes meet.google.com somehow special in how this extension handles it?

Changing to implement the whitelist via "custom mode", where you list each whitelisted website in the JSON object and map it to a user-agent string in the extension settings, rather than setting the custom user-agent through the addon tooltip, does not have the same issue, and custom user-agent is enabled/disabled as expected on all websites.
