Two community contributions ship in this release: - Menu bar mode by @vtemian (#5): statusItem() API creates a menu bar icon with a popover WebView, including setTitle() and resize() methods. - Open links externally by @joemccann (#6): openLinks/openLinksApp options let clicked links escape the WebView to the system browser or a specific app. Also adds GLIMPSE_BINARY_PATH env var override. Folds the previous Unreleased section into the 0.4.0 changelog entry.
