Thanks for the plugin, but CVS (0.6pre) already contains :viewsource
natively and I don't plan to do a 0.5.4 release anymore. It also has
mappings gf and gF (for go file).

You are welcome, looking forward for more patches :) If functions like
these benefit more than a specialized kind of users, I even prefer to
get a "native" patch, than a plugin, as features like this should be
part of standard vimperator. However, I will only apply them if they are
for CVS (which is firefox3 only).

PS: But also nice to share such plugins with the mailing list. Even if I
don't add certain plugins to the homepage, some mailing list readers
still might want them.
