content extensions need universal actions

• Component: WebCore Misc.
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

Most of the css in content extensions will probably be applied to all pages.  We don't want to compile a bunch of .* triggers, so let's add a faster way to do this.

This might not be the best way to do this.  I'm open to better ideas.  We mentioned making a new default style sheet, but I'm not sure if we actually want to do that.

We should not do that. There are other ways to write the same thing. You could do "(.+)?" for example.

The way to detect that is check if:
-There is any final state in the epsilon closure of the start state.
-Alternatively, every transition from the epsilon closure of the start state ends in a state closed on a final state.

I guess you could also leave the trigger empty and just accept that in the other parts.

Wooot! More tests. You make me feel bad about my patch :)
