Hope to add a feature that automatically displays history (chrome://history/) when the mouse is scrolled to the right, with an unfixed number of entries that can be scrolled down. This feature is already available in Speed Dial 2, which can be used for reference. As shown below, thank you very much.

Hello,
I'm definitely interested in features that my competitors have :).
Let me see... and let me brainstorm it here a bit:

1. the API for the history is here:
   https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/history

2. it needs a new permission (history) but I see it in the list of optional, that's good:
   https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/optional_permissions#api_permissions

3. then all I need is to use the history.search:
   https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/history/search
   (sadly, not on Android)

So far so good, the only issue is the activation you've mentioned - using a "mouse in area" activation.
This will need to be think through, since I can image such "sidebar" could host also some other features.
And maybe there could be one more on the other side.

I'll check it out it the competitors addon to see how it looks.
But please be patient, I have a lot on my plate currently.
