Please do not ignore aside and blockquote tags #191

Closed awesomerobot closed 4 months ago

In our forum application, Discourse (https://github.com/discourse/discourse) we use aside and blockquote tags to markup quotes. We've had a user report that this means Discourse sites are missing content when using this extension.

I'd recommend not omitting aside tags in general, as according to HTML spec: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/aside — these tags are not "junk" content but provide additional indirect information that me be useful to the reader.

Thank you!

I second this request! I am using Reader View to help me gather information more cleanly from documentation sites, which make heavy use of blockquote tags to show examples of the YAML or JSON required. Hiding these tags renders the page meaningless and makes your extension unusable on a vast array of documentation sites.

Please provide an easy way to allow blockquotes much like you have with allowing images.

@OldSoul-io The extension does not hide blockquote element.

I added support for keeping aside. Please provide example pages for testing.
