Handy extension. Fills a gap that seems like it would be common sense to
have in a browser.
I've had a couple of cases now where I've been several thousand characters
into writing a message to someone and the page gets reloaded. Well, what I
actually see is that the form box just clears itself. All of my typing just
disappears. I think I've finally tracked the problem down to this
extension. I enable the 'reload every', hours pass, I find myself clicking
on a link to respond to a message, and then lose all of my typing 15 minutes
later.
So, it would be good if the reload every extension somehow monitored whether
or not the user has typed information (or a signficant amount of
information?) into form entries on the page. If so, either disable or
temporarily disable reloading. This would be best with the countdown timer
that someone else suggested, but even without the visible timer this would
be a great addition.
Thanks again for the work.
