Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating Vimium's excluded-key handling and the search mode entry point, then determine how mode-specific key forwarding is selected. Done means an excluded key such as n remains excluded normally but is passed to Vimium while searching with /, with coverage for both modes.
