Yes, this is true for all WebExtensions. But I don't care if uBlock Origin or any other extension I use doesn't work on "system pages". However, I'd like to use my choice of navigation wherever I am in the browser.
Keyboard navigation requires a deeper integration with the browser (than WebExtensions allows for) to achieve a consistent experience.
> Vimium works on any tab, indipendently from the others.
What I'm trying to say is that Vimium keyboard navigation stops working when a page is loading.
I tried to illustrate my frustration to those only used to mouse navigation by saying that switching tabs with your mouse buttons and pointer freezed if the current page was loading. That would suck, right?

Do yourself a service and just be happy that you can't tell the difference between XUL generation keyboard navigation and the current state if affairs. :-D
Since all addons are disabled on the system pages, you come up with a lunatic analogy that means absolutely nothing. "Imagine that...". What addon, if any, works on firefox system pages?
Vimium always works... what low speed connection do you have for being unable to load any page in a fraction of a second? Beside that, I often use jk or whatever before the page is completely loaded.

You've misinterpreted me twice. I don't know how I would rephrase it again so that you understand.
_giorgio_ is probably not a vi/vim/nvim/neovim user..
Many years ago I used vimperator and it made Firefox behave with a very much vi-like experience. Unfortunately, the halfway implementation of Vimium (and Tridactyl) is too annoying for me so I don't have it installed.
