URL Host Mover Extension

This extension is yet another URL redirector attempt :-)

It is more for developers.

When it is not possible to modify the \"etc/hosts\" file because we do not have the permissions, this extension makes possible to manage browser redirection rules.
And it is possible to manage them by groups and select the one whose rules are active.

Just beware of infinite loops :)

It was developed without pretention (you just have to see the poverty of the design :-)), but if you have any remarks or suggestions, don't hesitate to let me know.
