Description

Not sure if it is already possible. That would be great if vimium can control media player buttons.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to sample URL 'https://github.com/stevearc/oil.nvim'
  2. Click F
  3. Media buttons (Play, Mute, full Screen, etc) can't be controlled.
