It refreshes the connection, keeps me logged in, and doesn't raise the browser window. And unlike my old hacky method, it doesn't create a new tab each time. I was surprised that the installation procedure didn't ask me to choose between Linux and other OSs. Maybe the extension files are the same in any case, or maybe the XPInstall system figures it out.

At the moment, the ReloadEvery addon is doing what I need. If I ever need another solution, though, I'll try "wget --load-cookies".
