I like this extension. I use most every day. There are only two complaints I have: 1. You cannot exclude functions in the results. I typically am searching for objects or more often variables. The function results are noise. 2. It can get into an infinite loop and crash Chrome. (try this extension on www.kroger.com for a demonstration... it is pretty much useless on that site.) I've attempted to contact the author for concern #1. I never got a response.
