Hi Claudio,

I already had a suspicion that that was what you really wanted.
I find your concept of filtering webpages through scripts sufficiently
interesting to devote some time trying to implement an interface. But it could
take a few weeks before I get around to it.
In the mean time you could try to write a script that runs under my extension
and that fetches the contents of the webpage directly from the internet (e.g.
using the Libwww-perl module) and then prints it with some modifications. This
has the disadvantage that it won't work offline, but at least you'll be able to
try out your idea.
