User reviews

The biggest problem with this extension is that it uses Chrome to manage the keyboard shortcut binding. That prevents a lot of key combinations from being used. Other extensions get around this by managing the keyboard shortcuts through other means, such as MouseTrap (Javascript library). The second issue is that it only covers focusing on the first input. It's missing the additional options to jump to the next and previous inputs. If these two issues are addressed, this would be a much better extension.
