I have discovered r=C3=A9cently, the extension "= Export Tabs URLs". I suppose I could build a function to read the data= from the produced file and convert all the entry to org. The only hard par= t is to check for duplicates, I suppose.

org-capture extension can save to org from gui browser.

copy all urls extension used to save all tabs from firefox in org link
format.=C2=A0 idk what teh best replacement is for webextension.

in principle, it should be possible to create a gui browser extension
in which you can open all selected headers' urls in the gui browser. and also mark tabs in gui browser save to org headers with a tag.
thus, you could have a topic dedicated to researching food processors
[or whatever topic], and load up a set of tabs, then edit those tabs
in firefox, then save back to org.=C2=A0 optionally deleting the ones with<= br> that tag that are not being saved.=C2=A0 however, it's just an idea.
