Downloads an .exe-file so it can install "otherwise unavailable functionality". not a behavior you would expect from a trustworthy extension. I'd like to point out that similar extensions work fine out of the box (e.g. "Zoom per tab")

this extension is very suspicious, as it asks to install another daemon, while "Zoom per tab" is functioning fine without.

It was exactly what I wanted, didn't mind intalling a native component, but does not work on Linux which you can find out by reading the description page but only if you click "Read more". I'll add a star when the restriction appears first on the description I'd add more starts when it works on Linux.
