Pressing `t` opens a localhost page then further `t` or `x` command stop working

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug Pressing t, which should open a new tab, instead opens a tab with localhost in the address bar. Pressing other keys like x, q etc fail to work and the tab must be closed using built-in commands (cmd-w etc).

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Press t from any webpage, such as the vimari github page.
  2. See localhost page open up.

Expected behavior The standard Safari new tab page opens up as per the Safari settings. (In my case, a list of favourites.)

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • macOS version: 10.14.6
  • Safari version: 13.0.3
  • Vimari version: 2.0.3

Additional context None.

Sorry about this, it is a limitation in the Safari extensions API. On an “Empty Page”, a “Top Sites” page, a “Favourites” page, or a page which doesn’t load like localhost, Vimari is not injected, and cannot provide any keyboard shortcuts.
