Description

If both https://google.com and *://*/* have been granted, I think this module will attempt to inject the scripts twice on Google.com (although I have not seen this happening)

Using the new dropOverlappingPermissions function, this module can clean up the additionalPermissions list before trying to inject the scripts.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the 'dropOverlappingPermissions' function from 'webext additional permissions' and apply it to filter the additionalPermissions list before injection to avoid duplicates.
