Started work on it; #84.

A possible alternate UI for the same idea: press a button to temporarily hide the jetzt box and jump to the part of the page that was just read, highlighting the sentence in place. Then the reader could see the sentence in context and have an easier time with whatever backtracking they wanted. This would also be useful if the text references a chart or an image, for example.

That will soon be the default pause behaviour!

[matt-gardner]

Yeah, I just saw #53, where that's mentioned. I'm just reading through these tickets seeing if there's anything I can contribute. You all have done a really great job with this extension, and it's hard to see where a newcomer can help. Any suggestions?

[ds300]

Thanks for the kind words :) The first thing that springs to mind is customisable keybindings. We've got a config page all set up and ready for someone to implement it. Are you familiar with AngularJS?

Is this a sign that we should tag issues with "goforit" or something to let people know what can be plucked off the back of the queue for work? Perhaps "easy", "medium", "hard" even?

[ds300]

That's a great idea. Easy, medium, hard, assigned, unassigned?

[matt-gardner]

Easy, medium and hard would be really helpful. I'm not totally sure what the ToDo tag means, but it seems like a makeshift "assigned", and "unassigned" probably isn't necessary - the absence of an "assigned" tag is clear enough.

And I'm not really family with AngularJS, but I'll look around some more and see what I can find.

[nomicode]

Agree that assigned might not be necessary. A "goforit" (can't think of a better name) tag would mean "this is a nice idea but nobody on the core team is planning to do it". I've seen this on another project, but I forget the word they use. It's just a green light to get stuck in on thing.

Great feature idea.
