This release adds deep links, fixes the overlay not showing over the taskbar, and includes several other quality-of-life improvements and fixes.

Note: Mouseless is jumping to v1.0! (There will be no v0.5 stable release.) v1.1 will bring even bigger changes, including an overhaul of the config editor / app windows, custom actions and more. 🚀
