Background page request This option keep the session alive by requesting page in the background using AJAX requests, and page reload is not required and unsaved changes are not lost.

almost perfect extension, reposting a github comment that i agreed with, this would make it perfect imo: " Generally when you log into a website, you're logged into the entire domain, so it would be good if the menu had an option for adding a domain, rather than just the specific page. So if you're on https://foobar.com/users/stib/?&session=123&fuz=baz&etc=etc you could choose Add domain and it would add https://foobar.com/*. " - stibinator also allow us to set the default interval to something other than 5
