Support TabFocusNext/Prev on chrome:// and chrome-extension:// pages #27

Closed jsarets closed 12 years ago

TabFocusNext and TabFocusPrev are tripped up by chrome:// and chrome-extension:// pages. I understand that it might be non-trivial for ViChrome to fully support these "special" pages, but if possible it would be nice to at least be able to cycle through such tabs vi-style. Particularly since new users are highly likely to have the ViChrome options and/or Chrome extensions pages open while first playing around with this extension, and ViChrome does not play nicely with those tabs. Also if you use the New Tab page, then you can't use 'x' to immediately delete a new tab without first navigating away from the New Tab page.

Unfortunately Chrome disables all extensions on the special pages(chrome://, chrome-extension://, Chrome Web Store, New Tab Page) for security reasons. So vichrome can't do anything on those pages.

Yeah, that's why none of Vi-like Chrome extensions (ViChrome, Vrome, Vimium) can't beat it.
