The extension does not create a step when a listbox is clicked and an option is selected. This should be possible.

Native HTML selects are using native system-level UI which aren't captured by the document-level click listeners.

Lacking an option to capture interactions on the system level (opening other apps, drag and dropping files, etc.) and security options on some iframes preventing the clicks to be captured by design are main reasons that I started developing the desktop version of What-to-click (at least the click capturing part).

To be clear, I'll keep the browser click gathering at the time being as it has low friction to install and works for most cases.
