Thank you for the latest update. The Element Hider works fantastically well, even more so than the Adblock Plus counterpart. I mean... It's just so insanely blazingly fast! I often found myself seeing the elements before they were hidden on Adblock Plus, as if they were being removed really, really slow. But here? I never see them again, even with several hundres of them applied on one site.

Edit: Oh, and a shortcut keybind to the Element Picker would be handy. Saves me the trouble of not having to have the icon visible.

You're welcomed. The trick for the element hider to work well is to use cosmetic filters which are specific to a web site. This way the CSS styles can be injected before the page has been displayed in the browser. The element picker enforces this.

I changed the title of the entry here as an issue to track the keyboard shortcut for the element picker. I am not sure though the shortcut can work when the extension icon is not visible. If not, workaround would be a menu entry in the context menu.

Dup of #256 (I will keep #256 opened because the main issue was not about the shortcut)
