I can't be sure of this, but I don't think that such large percentage of the HN readership:

a) Uses Firefox and Greasemonkey b) Will want to install it and keep it installed for a long time.

For the few that will, I don't think this will make such a huge impact.

Really? I consider myself an oddball because I typically don't use Firefox and Greasemonkey. From all the blog posts, articles on sites like LifeHacker, etc, that I see, I figured Greasemonkey was extremely popular amongst the techie crowd.

Just going from posts in hn would give me the impression that usage of Firefox is quite common. What's giving you an impression to the contrary?

And what would having had used Greasemonkey already or not have to do with adoption of this script? If the script is useful, users would use the the script and whatever Firefox addons it required regardless.
