Can you send messages from content scripts in the main world?
I'm kinda lost between just having the following in the content script 
const resp = sendToBackgroundViaRelay({
            name: "editor"
          })
const resp = sendToBackgroundViaRelay({
            name: "editor"
          })
with an editor.ts handler in background handle it orrrrr, this in the content script and an editor.ts in the background to handle it 
 relay(
   {
     name: "editor"
   },
   async (req) => {
     console.log("some message was relayed:", req)

     return {
       message: "Hello from sandbox"
     }
   }
 )
 relay(
   {
     name: "editor"
   },
   async (req) => {
     console.log("some message was relayed:", req)

     return {
       message: "Hello from sandbox"
     }
   }
 )
Or something else I'm missing, the other thought I had is you're supposed to have two content scripts, one in the main world and one not then in the one that's not you have 
relayMessage({
  name: "editor"
})
relayMessage({
  name: "editor"
})
Thanks so much!
