Remove data/background.js. This file is only relevant for a Chrome extension.

data/selfie.js: When using the message event, always verify that the source is okay, otherwise you may accidentally expose your add-ons functionality to arbitrary pages.
See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/postMessage
For same-page communications, I recommend CustomEvent over postMessage, because the above issue will not occur, and your message event will not conflict with other (badly written) add-ons that do not expect your message events.

Overwriting pushState / replaceState and modifying the CSP is nasty. Try to avoid it if possible. There are several alternatives, e.g. usinga MutationObserver to watch an element for changes. If you really want to overwrite history.pushState, then use exportFunction, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/SDK/Guides/Content_Scripts/Interacting_with_page_scripts#Expose_functions_to_page_scripts and https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM/Language_Bindings/Components.utils.exportFunction
