Other related browser extensions use a number in a red box to indicate the number of problems or the number of domains that are blocked. JShelter uses the number to represent which level is currently in use on the given page.
We should consider making a change to this behavior for accessibility or UX reasons. Possible ways to change:
This issue was brought up to me on a private external discussion.
(1) uBlock Origin seems to use black background. (2) A user can define own levels that do not use numbers so there might also be letters. (3) Replacing the level number with the number of APIs being modified does not make sense to me.
That being said. We are redesigning the UI. While JShelter does not know the number of modified calls right now, it should know the number in the future. So for 0.6 we will probably display the number of modified calls. However, there is a room for only 3 symbols in the box. The question is, what do we do with 1000 blocked calls? Another question is how many calls a typical web page modifies, I would say that it will be high but I do not know how much.
For 0.5, we might consider renaming the levels.
When we rename the levels, we risk that we break user-defined levels with the new names.
