Using a content_type match against http://*/* and https://*/* grants the extension unfettered access to all data and all browsing activity on all sites. It also triggers a scary warning during installation. Using activeTab permission removes the need for continuous access to all sites by only injecting content scripts upon user interaction. To ensure that scripts aren't loaded multiple times, the `markdown_here_loaded` attribute is set on the document on first load.
