This is a pretty cool tool. I'm currently working on a tool that addresses this problem in a different way, by standing up an API server that returns mock data based on the incoming request.

webdriverio tests are basically automation tests similar to selenium tests. Looking at FIREFOX PROFILE SERVICE(http://webdriver.io/guide/services/firefox-profile.html), it looks like you can only fire up the extensions, but not define actions like click or type. If that would have been the case, One could have intercepted the requests, defined their own response and have automated tests defined for an app/website. Have a look at the blog post to understand the proper use case.
