Another approach is to run a script on all pages that contain links to the pages your script runs on, and it alters the links when say shift is pressed and restores them when shift is released. Say your script runs on urls like 'http://example.com/foo33.htm'. The script alters this link to 'http://example.com/foo33.htm#runMyFunkyScript' when the shift key is depressed.
Then put the following test at the top of your original script. if (document.location.hash != '#runMyFunkyScript') return; Here is how to alter the links. In the below example you will want to taylor the XPath inside the document.evaluate to select only links your script runs on.
