Is there a way (or can it be added) to map a custom key to do this job?\r\n\r\nBTW, I'm really love Vimium because of its simplicity and unintrusiveness. It doesn't mess up with what the browser already has to offer. Thank you, guys! :)"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/philc/vimium/issues/comments/74408852","html_url":"https://github.com/philc/vimium/issues/1463#issuecomment-74408852","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/philc/vimium/issues/1463","id":74408852,"user":{"login":"smblott-github","id":2641335,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/2641335?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/smblott-github","html_url":"https://github.com/smblott-github","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/smblott-github/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/smblott-github/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/smblott-github/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/smblott-github/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/smblott-github/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/smblott-github/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/smblott-github/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/smblott-github/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/smblott-github/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-02-15T08:33:00Z","updated_at":"2015-02-15T08:33:00Z","body":"> Also mapping to other key combos instead of just commands in Vimium would allow for fantastic support of hotkeys native to sites.\r\n\r\nAs @mrmr1993 said, that's really another matter entirely.\r\n\r\nOn `Esc`, I can see the use case.  And it wouldn't, I think, be too hard or disruptive to implement it. @mrmr1993: I'm thinking just of pushing the mapping to the content script and extending the implementation of `isEscapeKey`.  What do you think, @mrmr1993?  Would that work?"}}
