A lot of the comments here suggest that some of the functionality can be replaced by extensions like vimium-ff [1]. If you only compare the list of features then maybe. If you try using the extensions, you immediately notice that the keybindings don't work outside of fully loaded page, have horrible lags and delays and misses a keyboard event from time to time.
For the curious folk, the GitHub page [2] seems to do a better job at telling the how of things.
My question is why Lisp for scripting? What's the technical reason behind choosing it? Or is it just personal preference? I use emacs myself and my only complaint is elisp. In this time and age it looks very alien-ish to most people and judging by my colleagues, It can be a major deterrent from using emacs.
