Changelog:
1.0: Initial Release.
1.1: Bugfix: now takes into account whether the window is a popup vs. normal, and allows selection of special tab to aid in easier ctrl+tabbing.
1.2: Broke main functionality with last update, now fixed.
1.3: Extending closing functionality to second, semi-special tab.
2.0: Back from hiatus! Fixed the issue where a new pinned tab would appear upon every startup for some users, and moved the close-extra-new-tabs functionality out to a new extension, called "Close Extra New Tabs" (see other apps by this developer).

After fighting with a different unname extension that insisted on focusing on the pinned tab, I discovered this one which does exactly what I want it to. Thanks.
