A really nice extension, and thanks to Travis for fixing the permissions issue. ---- original review ---- A really nice extension, but today I was greeted with a notification that it was disabled. To enable, I need to grant it access to read and change all data on all websites. I _hope_ this is a mistake...

I love this extension, it is humbling to say the least to be reminded of our significant insignificance everytime I open a new tab! Thank you!
