Description

Say I have created a global mark in one chrome window using mA shortcut. Can I jump here from another chrome window(not tab)? I am unable to get it to work.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported mA global-mark behavior across two Chrome windows, then inspect how Vimium stores and resolves marks. Verify whether jumping from the second window can reach the first, and define done as either working cross-window navigation or a clear explanation of the supported behavior.
