Description

Sometimes, the vimium cannot find all clickable elements that we want to focus. It's a good idea to allow users add css rules to include extra clickable elements.

Research direction

Start by tracing how Vimium discovers clickable elements and where its user-configurable CSS rules are handled. Define how users would add selectors for elements the automatic discovery misses, then verify that those elements can be focused and activated without disrupting existing behavior.
