Go for it; the "xpi" file is actually just a Zip archive and the

I've been using it since it was originally announced' I've never
had cause to question its safety. It operates fine and has no
conflicts with any other add-on I use. There was a one-time
problem with https redirects to wikipedia but that has long
since been corrected.

It's not yet a 1.0 release; this may have something to do with
it.

Everyone should be using it. Spread the word.
