Hi Alessandro,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Let me add three additional comments...

That’s equivalent to “that’s how we implemented it”.

This should be a native a/href to codimd (on _blank), with Javascript overlaid that takes you to the iframe.  So if I use the browser right click, I get the native href, and if I click normally, I get the JavaScript effect.

Maybe keeping some “history” (instead of being deleted, field loses its color and slides closed) would help.
(That could also help with making the speaker indication sticky for a few seconds.)

I know, but there are just too many different special requirements, and a single-click button for joining the queue with the right requests set is valuable.
