I can see that this is useful for reading books only avaialable in the browser. For example for

Seems similar to Uzbl (a minimalist browser that was receiving a lot of attention a few years back): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uzbl

Not full fledged, and built on electron.

Push F11.

OK, no, it's not the exact same, but it did take just one keystroke.
