Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on a Mac trackpad with Chrome 91.0.4472.164 and Vimium 1.67, using the configured three-finger swipe for page navigation. Compare behavior with Vimium enabled and disabled; done means the swipe navigates backward or forward while Vimium remains enabled.
