Description
if i right click a dom element and select inspect, the chrome dev tools open but scroll to the bottom of the tree, where something referencing vimium shows up. i need to manually scroll up that pane to see the item i've actually intended to inspect.
it's a common action for web development, so i needed to disable vimium in the meantime

Research direction
Start by reproducing the right-click Inspect action with Vimium enabled and observe the Chrome DevTools tree. Done means the inspector stays focused on the selected DOM element instead of scrolling to a Vimium reference; the payload names no source files or tests to inspect.
