User reviews

**NOTE: THIS EXTENSION NEEDS AN UPDATE, IT'S NOT WORKING ANYMORE Original Text: I find this extension to be very useful, because I always hate opening up a new tab to find a definition. However, this may get annoying at times. Could there be an option to show the definition in the right-click selection window?
