User Reviews
This works well but... is there any way to make it not have a conflict when writing ASCII characters with Alt+XXX?
EDIT: The developer helped me immensely! He's great and realised a way to bypass this problem. And the extension works perfectly. Definitely recommended.

Is Select Tab Using Alt-Number Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Select Tab Using Alt-Number requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
