Description

Chrome 63.0.3239.84
Vimium 1.62.4

OS X 10.13.1

I just updated to OS X 10.13.1 High Sierra. I was happy to see Vimium working. I've mapped link hint decorators to the digits using 0123456789 in advanced options carried over from my prior laptop. Link hints aren't using the entered string, rather any capital A-Z.

Additionally, if I try to blank out the field to reset this option, it automatically populates with 0123456789, but doesn't use that string. The repopulation might be intended.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in Chrome 63 with Vimium 1.62.4 by setting the advanced link-hint decorator option to 0123456789, then try clearing it. Trace how that setting reaches link-hint rendering and verify that the entered digits are used, while confirming the field's automatic repopulation behavior.
