Description
Describe the bug
I want to be able to scroll within individual elements that contain text. For e.g. https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/216#issuecomment-647820803 shows a long configuration. Is there any existing bindings to do this? I tried gf/gF but since this is not an iFrame, it does not help.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Go to URL https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/216#issuecomment-647820803
- Try to scroll the configuration.
Browser and Vimium version
