Description
Using vimium in ff ( it's awesome, thanks )
I have a non-classic keyboard layout, so jkhl are all over the keyboard, I can't really use these to navigate in visual mode, making visual mode useless.
Could we get a way to customize movement keys in visual mode ? Or could you point me at how to modify them myself ( for vimium-ff ) in the source code ?
Thanks !

Research direction
Start by locating the JavaScript entry point that handles Vimium's visual mode and its movement keys, then inspect how other customizable keys are defined. Done means users can configure visual-mode movement keys and navigate reliably with a non-classic layout; verify the behavior in Firefox.
