Description
#2410 would probably make this request unnecessary.
I'd like to be able to specify a selector (ideally, different selectors for different pages) so that vimium knows which links to target. For example, there are buttons in Amazon's console with class gwt-TabLayoutPanelTab that are divs. Vimium doesn't realize these are links, and I have to use my mouse :(
Is this possible? I don't see the possibility currently

Research direction
Start by reviewing issue #2410, which the report says may make this request unnecessary, then trace Vimium's current link-targeting behavior. Determine whether configurable selectors, including different selectors per page, are still needed; done means the request is either superseded or has a defined, testable implementation scope.
