Horrible user interface. I was waiting for a popup menu to ingress the RegExp but you have to configure a profile in another panel of this extension

2018-09-10 Chrome 66.0.3359.170 32bit: After defining one new profile, and then deleting it, it's stuck and you can't set/choose the "Default" profile anymore. You have to again redefine a profile besides "Default". Editing "Default" profile doesn't save changes in URL match section. Hmmm, I can't add a URL match in my profile, a popup says each time I press OK: "Please fill inputs for adding regexp item.". The workflow for using it is described in the first screenshot, I had not understood that from the beginning. You can't jump with a key shortcut from occurence to occurence, and there's no overview of the matches in the sidebar, so you must scroll throgh the whole page in order to see if there are matches.
