Please, update to be compatible with newest FF version!

After using Opera for years and constantly selecting text, I don't know what I'd do without this. The way browsers select text or the inability to select at all, is most frustrating.

Работает там, где не помогает отключение скриптов. Не нашел быстрой кнопки включения-отключения, только через Дополнения. Может не до конца разобрался... )

I was looking for which of my ~20 installed addons are not compatible with multiprocess, and this was one of the two, so I just came here to write this, but stumbled upon ZimM comment on memory consumption, and can confirm this is indeed the case: even on fresh start when all tabs are suspended and only one active, I get ~27-30% memory consumption increase with this addon (from 980 MB to 1250 MB, yeah, that's with a lot of tabs, but they are suspended). Other than that, this addon is nice to have, but I've disabled it for now.

The add-on itself is great and works like advertised.
However, enabling it increases memory usage drastically. I have quite a lot of tabs open, and with this add-on enabled, my RAM usage jumps from 1000 MB to 1400 MB. This is not a fluke, I've tested this multiple times by enabling/disabling this addon and restarting the browser, so even though I've actually used this add-on for years now, I can't recommend it.

Trying to skillfully select text in or around links has been driving me nuts for years! I just learned about holding down the alt key to select link text, but this add-on just makes it even easier!

Works perfectly. Most of the time I don't use it but when I need to, it just works, and saves time. It's a pity that FF decided not to make this the official behavior, but this addon fixes the problem.

Works fine in FF 42. As others already said, it's hard to understand why this isn't the default for copying link texts in FF. Are there any advantages to the awkward default behaviour that I'm not aware of...?
Anyway, this add-on takes care of the problem once and for all - install and forget. The only bad thing about it is its name. ;)
