There are certainly some functionality gaps. The extension only works with a limited subset of GitHub inputs. Omitted are editing MD source files and wiki entries (probably two of the most complex use cases!).

Great extension! A WYSIWYG editor like this is needed for ALL web sites with comment input fields, if there is a way to detect if a website supports markdown input. Or perhaps the user could manage the allow list, like great suspender does.
