Hi, thank you for the extension, it already covers 90% of the use cases that I have. There's one feature that would cover the remaining 10%.

Summary

What Copy As Markdown currently lets you do is to copy the tab URL with the tab title as a markdown link.

What I'd also like to be able to do:

  1. Select some text
  2. Right click and choose "Copy As Markdown"
  3. Get a markdown link with the selected text as the link text and the destination equal to the URL of the page.

Hey! I've come across the extension with exactly this request, though as it doesn't solve this case still, I've built my own tiny one for this. Check it out: https://github.com/lancedikson/selection-to-md-link
