[Feature Request] A config to setup to skip certain html elements like <pre> and <blockquote> #283

I recently started to use Android and the Google Assistant's read aloud function makes me think it would be a good idea to let users choose some tags to skip. I mainly use read aloud to help me through some foreign language technical articles. And Google Assistant skips code block and note and warning blocks between paragraphs, which I think is quite useful.

So I suggest to allow the user to set a set of tags to skip when scanning for text or speaking. Preferably flag those text and skip when speaking but keep them inside extracted text panel so that user can choose to read them aloud easily afterwards.
