WONDERFUL EXTENSION! it's 5/5 worthy, I just wish I could remap the shortcut, because in my case (and many) the middle mouse wheel click already opens links in a new tab, so I either have the preview open with a new tab in the background, or the extension doesn't registre the click at all. If it was ctrl+left mouse click it would be perfect and much more confortable for me (have to apply pressure to do the mouse middle click) , or anything else. regardless of that, I just want to thank the developer of this extension for making my life somewhat easier :)

egész jó lenne, ha nem kellene nyomkodni közben ctrl billentyűt... meg úgy látom, nem boldogul a https címekkel. néhány nap használat után rontok a véleményemen: bejelentkezős oldalakon (torrent), ha le akarom tölteni a fájlt, akkor újra és újra be akar léptetni, nem férek hozzá semmihez. ajjaj...

AMAZING, best I've tried - only wish there was an option to activate when hovering a link for a few seconds
