Description

The strength of ublock / adblock plus is that they separated the core engine from the list. Thus, different people can work on both, and de facto keeping the lists up to date has proven more time consuming.

For link cleaning, there are several good and actively-maintained extensions (like https://gitlab.com/KevinRoebert/ClearUrls), and that would be super cool if you and other active authors of similar extension could join force in any way, at least on sharing some common definition format to allow reuse between us...

I'm a programmer, I know that means work, but we would all win from it, wouldn't we?
Thanks again for your time and effort on this extension.

Research direction

The issue proposes collaboration with other URL-cleaning extension authors, especially ClearURLs, around a shared definition format. No files, tests, or entry points are named, so first clarify the desired scope and participating projects with the authors. Done would require an agreed interoperability plan or format, but the issue does not define one.
