I try to program an extension, after a CTRL+SHIFT+0 I would like to get the selected text in any web page. But I can't. The hotkey works, not the selected text. I have this from the console:

Selection { anchorNode: null, anchorOffset: 0, focusNode: null, focusOffset: 0, isCollapsed: true, rangeCount: 0, caretBidiLevel: null }
