Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue at the linked Stack Overflow URL in Chrome 87.0.4280.88, using f and df on the main frame and its horizontal sub-scroll area. Trace Vimium's focus and scrolling behavior to determine why the sub-scroll area is not focused; done means the area can be focused and scrolled with the documented key sequences.
