Great! If you want to turn it on sooner rather than later, I can go ahead and file a bug to have it enabled. As we've noted before, the extension still has some significant bugs that we are working on, so you may want to spend some time testing it before using it for real classes. But if you're willing to live with the bugs for now, it probably won't take long to get it turned on.
