Sorry if this has been asked, but where does one "officially" make extension requests?
My requests would be:
- JavaScript blocking, blacklisting, whitelisting, etc.
- HTML table tools for table sorting and, more importantly for me, table or row copying to tab-delimited text. Firefox's TableTools does a good job at this.
- Faviconize bookmarks in bookmark bar. Name speaks for itself. Firefox equivalent: Smart Bookmarks Bar.
- Music player controls. I only care about volume and start/stop/pause, but a full-featured extension reproducing Foxytunes would not be unwelcome. Bonus: Let me customize buttons for specific radio station streams.
What I want for Xmas is one bar to hold all the extensions;
With Dev Chrome and running at 1024X768, there are only 9 extensions displayed and very soon I think only 8 extensions will be displayed :-(
@sulasno
try to find a page-action alternative of the extensions you use, or find some that include 2-3 services like One Number, instead of Gmail, Wave, Reader and Voice checker. If you tell us what extensions you use I'm sure smbd can help :P Or just ask santa for a bigger monitor![]()

maybe you're right; I hope it's not too late to send an email to Santa for ask for a larger monitor :-)
and one extension that can list the extensions installed in Chrome would be really nice
@sulasno
At first look you can use IE Tab Classic (uses page action) instead of IE Tab. Boom -1 icon
You can disable Secbrowsing - plugin version checker and enable it every lets say 2-3 days to check and disable it again. I doubt there are updates every 1- hours
Cleeki's icon is in my experience useless, so you can delete the browser_action in the extensions manifest and in the Preferences file, once Chrome is closed
The same you can do with Adblock+, 'cause seriously you need to remember only Ctrl+b and Ctrl+e
Never used a reload extension, but this one uses page action, instead of browser action
You can always use this bookmarklet-> Translate Page instead of Google Translate extension.
PS: is there a restriction of the number of page action icons?

OK and thanks
will try your suggestions
for translation I use the following bookmarklet (though I forgot where I got it from)
Code:javascript:var t=((window.getSelection&&window.getSelection())||(document.getSelection&&document.getSelection())||(document.selection&&document.selection.createRange&&document.selection.createRange().text));var e=(document.charset||document.characterSet);if(t!=''){location.href='http://translate.google.com/translate_t?text='+t+'&hl=en&langpair=auto|en&tbb=1&ie='+e;}else{location.href='http://translate.google.com/translate?u='+escape(location.href)+'&hl=en&langpair=auto|en&tbb=1&ie='+e;};
as to whether there is a restriction of page icons, I am not sure;
I got about the same number of extensions installed in Chromium and it shows only 8 while dev Chrome shows 9

Is there an extension for killing 'redirects'? Firefox has one and I find it useful.
I'd like to request an extension that blocks the opening of tabs with certain base domains. Even though I'm doing my best to block ads using a combination of solutions, including AdBlock+ and a good HOSTS file, some flash files (which I cannot block, they serve content that I want to access) still open new windows / tabs and bug me.
So for instance I'd add http://annoying.example.com to the blocklist of this extension, and anytime a request came in to open a tab with that base domain, it would just never appear.
Does that make sense?
There's a Gmail Labs feature called Mail Goggles or something like that.. basically it pops up a series of math problems for you to solve after a certain time of night. This goes a long way toward preventing late night drunken emails, which I am unfortunately prone to.
I was wondering if someone might know of an extension for Chrome that could maybe do something similar for certain sites (like, say, Facebook?)... either blocking the site completely between a user-set time, or doing the math problem solve thing to allow me to verify my sufficient sobriety before I can browse FB?
