It is safe as there is no malicious code. There could be bugs, but it is very simple and does not send out information (*).
Since it is JavaScript the source is included. Unzip the downloaded file and you can inspect the source.
Additionally Mozilla verifies add ons provided at their site. Although I do not know how diligently.

In theory the web extension API is browser independent, but in practice it is not. Probably I will try Chrome (or Chromium) first.
(*) Addendum:
Maybe I should be more precise: By fetching page and image from an image host cookies are transfered. This is done by the browser in the same way as if you click on a link. This is necessary to get past the "Continue to image" page. But apart from that no other data is accessed or processed.
