Capture page open time

[Yuu-Han]

I agree in general going back to the previous node makes sense. This way histroymap better reflects the logical flow; currently it is very much time oriented (going back adds a new node). The logics for this is in hmController.js and the code is not very clean after new changes being constantly added :-).

I'm also thinking about if we need other status attributes for the node (besides clicked)? For example to distinguish if a page has ever been opened? It would also be interesting to capture the time the user spends on the tab?

Yes, the old extension tracks whether a page ever becomes visible. If we add this back, it would be interesting to track how long user spends on that page (actively). Can you create a new issue for the page open time?
