First of all, thank you for this awesome extension. I was so tired of not being able to navigate some browser pages with gestures because of the lack of permissions.

Now I only need something to open all hovered links or media in new background tabs with just one single gesture. The very first gesture extension I used for Firefox 15-20 years ago was able to do this and after getting so used to it for years I really miss it. I tried many other extensions after that but they all stop after opening the first link or image. This is probably the only extension that can do it but I don't know how. Can you please help

I basically need this but it should keep opening everything I hovered until I stop hovering instead of the first link (or image) only. Should I just copy and paste the same actions until I have enough for let's say opening 20 links? If it is the solution is there a way to copy all actions without recreating them for each?
drag right to open in new background tab.acs

I also need a way to prioritize links over embedded pictures if anyone knows
