Description
Pardon me if this is answered somewhere, but I couldn't find it in the FAQ or README.
I run a website that many programmers use. Some of the use Vimium, and it appears the extension tries to upgrade editing on certain elements on my page. This has been causing some tricky JS errors that are very hard to track down as well as a lot of user pain because they don't realize the failures are due to the conflict between our code and Vimium's.
Is there a way to tag elements with "if you are running Vimium, please do not enhance this element"? Thanks for your reply in advance.
