In v8, we added a check to stop initing the SDK via
Sentry.init
if we detect it's being called in a browser extension. We had to adjust and add special conditions to this check multiple times because it triggered falsely in various environments we weren't aware of before (e.g. #12668). We received another issue where such a false positive was reported (#14133), so I'm thinking it's probably better to provide a general escape hatch for this check than to further bloat the bundle size by introducing more special cases in the extension check.This way, we'd initially still block
Sentry.init
and make users think twice how to proceed. However, we don't have to adapt the check every time a false positive gets reported.(note for v9: Maybe we should rethink the check. I'm not happy with the bundle size hit this produces)
