Worked for me! (had an issue with a site whose service-worker was somehow outdated/not-updating, and this was the only thing that fixed the issue for me, so I could use the latest version of the site's/webapp's code)

Nice idea, but I get WAY TOO MANY repeated prompts on sites I've already white-listed (GMail, etc). Please allow automatic acceptance for all requests from sites that have already been white-listed.
