I would not be so sure for windows. Even on Linux Org should be ready
for any user configuration of window manager.

Browser extensions are isolated as much as possible. It is assumed that
they communicate with web sites. They may communicate with a native
messaging application however. It must be installed and configured in
addition to the extension. This native host application may use D-BUS,
but it may invoke emacsclient directly. E.g. I use
https://github.com/maxnikulin/linkremark extension with
https://github.com/maxnikulin/burl native messaging helper.
I have not checked state of affairs recently, but when I tried native
messaging applications were unavailable for browsers shipped as snap or
flatpack packages (due to additional level of isolation). At least some
related Firefox bugs have not closed yet.
So in practice it is possible to get it working in both cases: external
protocol handlers and native messaging helper. I would call any approach
"rock solid" currently.
