There is already a "lite" version of uBlock origin that conforms to the new manifest and will still work.

There are still a few features missing, some can't be implemented but others will be.

    The 'block element' picker is the big one that can not be implemented in the lite version.

    Also included block lists can't update unless the extension itself updates.

    Those seem like really big hurdles. How can those be worked around?

    Is it not possible to trigger a manual block list update?
