Depending on if the community also agrees that some of the extension UI should be changed or not, I could make the changes. I personally also want the interface to be more like Violentmonkey, because Greasemonkey UI doesn't really settle with me that well.

What does everyone think here?

Well, I think UI updates are likely fine as long as it looks more like an XUL application and doesn't adopt a lot of "modern" conventions, like the three-dot menu, rounded corners, or a touchscreen-like interface. I haven't seen Violentmonkey's UI yet, but basically, as long as your updates to the UI are more functional in nature and keep in line with more conventional UI design that Pale Moon users are used to, it should be fine. Adding new functionality or extending what's there is likely fine, but people don't really like "streamlined" interfaces that give you fewer levers to pull or buttons to push around here.
