Any mouse movement, on any page, whilst this extension is enabled causes the console to be flooded with the message "event.layerX and event.layerY are broken and deprecated in WebKit. They will be removed from the engine in the near future."
This is new since Chrome 17.

It is caused by the use of jQuery 1.4.2. If you upgrade to jQuery 1.7 this will avoid the error message as [described here](http://blog.jquery.com/2011/11/03/jquery-1-7-released/) (see "removed features").
