I'm running Vimperator 3.8 on Firefox 25. I am no longer to able to use C-i to edit a text area in an external editor on sites that are trapping C-i for their own use. This has become particularly noticable on StackExchange-esque sites (like this one!).

Previously, the C-i would get handled both by Vimperator and by the site (so, I would get *emphasized text* in the text area and the text area would open in an external editor). Now, only the site is handling the keystroke.

I think this is a Firefox problem; I've tried installing It's All Text and setting the hotkey to C-i but the behavior is the same (fortunately, It's all Text makes it easy to set the hotkey so I'm set it to A-i instead, which works fine).

Is there any way to either (a) map another key to open the text area in an external editor or (b) to get C-i working again?
