en Worked for me but I just don't understand why we have to download this just to have "one" functionality to work in Gmail??

en Won't work in non-English languages. (The code looks for "more" and needs to also look for words like "más" for Spanish, for example. So I downloaded the GitHub repo and hacked it.) Works great otherwise!

Like others (not the sophists) it doesn't work for me. I refreshed and closed Chrome. I change the setting to "no modifier key" + delete (for the delete key) and it doesn't do anything. But....if I OPEN up the email and then press delete,it works. This is not intuitive or logical. Why should I have to open up SPAM and then delete? I expect the extension to delete whatever is selected and not needing to OPEN it like the default # or remapping to d does.

Easy to customize - but it doesn't work for me. I don't know if google has blocked it or if it's b/c I'm on a company managed account that possibly doesn't allow it.
