It would be great if this addon was made compatible with other editors, not necessarily IDEs. Maybe let the user open a file in Notepad++ for example.

A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Open Github in editor requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
