    It only works in simple Pages, that is, without frames or iframes or any other complex structure.

    Would be nice to have the Manifest V3 "Only When Clicked" permission option

    Not search in popup (play.google.com reviews)

    Same annoying experience as the other review that the input is always a keystroke behind what you've actually typed. The best workaround for that seems to be just hitting the left or right arrow key.

    Additionally, it causes Firefox to lock up when searching very large pages (which is unfortunately exactly what I need it for).

    First thing I did was try searching for "http://", to test how the extension handles escaping characters.
    We did not get that far. Final character of the search isn't processed until focus changes or you add an extra character and then backspace.
    Search and replace seems to need a "Do it!" button because it just sits there.

    thanks, you might be curious to review the situation: https://github.com/code-charity/ultimate-REGEX-extension/issues/4 (- if you like the design/vision you can give it 5 stars already rather than being its negative fate for long to come. )
    this bug seems a bit familiar from testing an old version, however i didnt write the code and this version works great in Chrome. - Documenting it: https://github.com/code-charity/ultimate-REGEX-extension/issues/5
    - probably you could even fix it quickly & feel great about that.
