I agree with most of the comments so far, specifically, Clay Shoaf's. I was about to write an extension myself to do this but your codebase is soooo close to it already. Here's the key missing features that every single content creator wants to have: 1. Hide all iframe tags 2. Remove all similar tags (example: id="AdThrive_ ..." ) 3. Bundle all the snips I've done on this page so I can apply them all on click 4. Remember my snips for a given domain (saved batches) and if possible just auto run them when visiting that domain Do these and you'll have 1M downloads by the end of the year. No joke.

Works as intended, unfortunately my search continues for the feature that I'm actually looking for. The inverse snip. I want to be able to select an element and show only that element and nothing else. This is probably difficult to do while maintaining all of the styling on a page, which is probably why no one has done it yet.

It works really well, a handy extension to have! Though, I am not able to use it in some specific websites, like the webstore itself... clicking on any of the buttons has no effect in these; any help would be appreciated!
