I know it's been discussed before, but I so wish Chrome Extensions for use on specific sites didn't need to ask for permissions like "Access your data on all websites" and "Access your tabs and browsing activity." It's a usability nightmare and sounds rather scary in today's security climate.
Thanks, Peter. Others have mentioned this as well. About 30 minutes ago I submitted an update that limits the extension's permissions to HN only, although it still accesses your active tab in order to place you in the right room. I'll see about a work-around for the tabs.
Ah, cool! I just assumed this wasn't possible and Chrome forced developers to do this as extensions always seem to ask for these overarching permissions when I check them out, sadly.
