Не без глюков, но полезное.

Great extension! Very reliable, thanks! One request... please add an option to ignore "New" tabs. I sometimes keep multiple windows open, and I open a new tab when then window isn't focused. This prevents (some) open tabs from automatically "doing stuff", like autoplaying videos if I have a youtube video open.
