URL in title

Reformats the title of each tab according to its URL.

What is URL in title?
The 'URL in title' extension is an innovative tool reframing the structure of your browser's tab titles into their corresponding URLs. This enables a simplified user experience when deploying password autofill utilities such as KeePass. The customization allows selection from protocols and domain names to complete URL reconstruction. Features include chances to disable the extension and support for pages that remove the title element while maintaining a clean codebase.

Finally, why isn't it standard in google chrome? It is a real mess those titles that change all the time. I also feel like this is more secure since I can now see if I'm on a spoofed website or not, because I can see the real url... Spoofed websites fake the window title as an URL for example https://www.my.governement.com, but with this plugin I can then see that the real url was: http://s453.amazon.webs.service.aw:80 It also allows other application to inspect my google chrome window, like notezilla , and password tools, they all work now.> Google why didn't you implement this in your settings?
