Ability to turn WebXR shim off without uninstalling the extension about immersive-web-emulator HOT 5 CLOSED

What we do when we need to test codepaths where XR is not available is to open the WebXR app in incognito mode, extensions are turned off for incognito mode by default (can be changed by settings), and XR will not be available as a result.

Thanks for the feedback. I understand the point about before-page-load injection. I think it would be totally fine if the page would reload when the "on/off" button is toggled (or if this change would only take effect on reload).

The incognito workaround is a bit problematic since it also turns off other extensions, auth information, etc., which are also good to have for development.

@hybridherbst Working on this now, this feature will be shipped in v1.3 (end of May release), but will be available sooner if you install from source as soon as I check it in (guessing by next week)

I think it's a good idea, though I think it's not as straight forward to implement as it sounds.. A content script is automatically injected before the page loads, adding WebXR polyfill, and the page requires the script to communicate with the emulator UI. I will add this to my to-do list and will take a look as soon as I get some extra time.
