Remove/reduce jQuery?

[Schweinepriester]

Hello there!

First up, thanks for your work here! :)

Before I attempt to send a PR I wanted to gauge your stance on removing jQuery or reducing the dependence.
Primarily I had mb_caa_dimensions.user.js in mind, basically 'to improve it for myself', but if you'd like I could also drive-by reduce the usage elsewhere.

Thus: What is your stance on jQuery? May I replace some usage with modern JS or should it stay as-is?

I've been meaning to get rid of jQuery eventually. The only place I can think of where jQuery is truly necessary is in MB: Enhanced Cover Art Edits to actually add the images, but that's using MB's own jQuery.

You're welcome to create a PR to remove jQuery from one or more scripts, but keep in mind that I'm planning to (eventually) rewrite all of the scripts to TypeScript w/ JSX (see #20), so your efforts might be in vain. However, that project has been on the backburner for a while so it'll be quite some time before that's fully finished.
