- (2017-05-18) Kasper The Guy: I like this add on. It does what it says it does. I got 1 problem with it though. Typing comments will trigger the actions that are linked to some keys. I would suggest a key that puts the focus on the message area. use enter for sending? and after sending put the focus back to the rest of the page. you get what im saying
