quick search selected words #4469

im user of vimium, and maybe a new functionality can be implemented. whenever we surf with vimium, we can use the visual mode to select content on the page, what about we can make the selected words underlined or colored and then we can use the f in normal mode to 'click' it? Use the default browser search engine in a new tab to search the selected word.

bg:im not native english speaker so i have to search for words when i encounter words i don't know. What about make the process faster?
