What’s new in version 0.0.3?

                This enhances the webcomic experience by removing anything non-comic from the page. Compatible with xkcd.com and what-if.xkcd.com!

It removes everything but the comic and lets it fill the width of the browser.

Then it binds the arrow keys to load the next/previous comic using ajax so the page doesn't flicker. The comic's number is pushed into the browser's history so the back/forward buttons still work as well without triggering any pageloads.

Home and End keys are now also supported.

Anyway, this was a fun project for me to learn how to develop extensions, please let me know if you have any issues/ideas.
