Description

Firefox version: 59.0.2 (on Mac if that matters)
Vimium version: 1.63.2

I know this opens up a whole new host of possible features, but I was just trying out Vimium, and thought it would be handy to have a couple of : options.

For instance, :q to close a tab would be really neat.

I dunno if this has been suggested before, but it would be really neat, and could be expanded to a whole host of new commands!
