Add to Transmission for Safari

Hi,
I've written a small Safari extension that gives you the possibility to just secondary click on any torrent link and then click the "Add to Transmission" context entry to have it downloaded and sent to the Transmission daemon that you've configured.
I've submitted it to Apple, but I don't think they'll approve it since none of the remote apps for iOS have been approved.
In the mean time you can download it here:

And you can find the source here:

Thanks for this Zanmoto! I was using a different extension but found it annoying to have to click on their Confirmation "OK" button.
You Provide a Much more elegant solution!
I was wondering if its possible to some how include categories into this feature. Allow me to explain:
I currently have Transmission downloading by default to my "Movies" folder. I set up preferences in Transmission so that some of my most watched TV shows are downloaded to the "TV" folder. This filtering method is not ideal because if I'm interested in downloading a one-off show ... it defaults to "Movies"
Id like to be able to right click and say "add to transmission -Movies" or "Add to Transmission -TV" is something like this possible? either by telling transmission to download as this group name or that group name .... or by configuration of your extension to download to a specific location?

It works on tracker.example.com but not on tracker.example.com. The option doesn't even appear in the context menu. Maybe because what uses SSL?

Is it just me or is this not working on Safari 6?

Version 1.3 works with Mountain Lion 10.8.5 and newest Safari.
I had to compile it myself from Git since i could only find links for version 1.0 (this post) and version 1.2 (somewhere else on the net).
I could upload it, but it's created with my Developer Certificate, and i don't want to steal credit from the developer.
Just get a Developer ID and certificate for Safari Extensions and compile it yourself

Is it in the Safari store yet? It's a shame the safari extension store not even a search feature has..
That is the main drawback of Safari against Chrome or Firefox.

Is it working with Safari 7?
I installed 1.3 but there is no item when I right clock torrent links..
EDIT
It's working, it isn't detecting the torrent links though.
It seems the filter for torrent links needs some tuning since it didn't detect this link.
Also, is it possible for it to automatically add the torrents to transmission without having to right click, with just a normal click?
The feed back is great. Fast, unobtrusive and simple.
