I like it! Its actually useful. Off topic, but would it be hard to port this as a Gnome Shell extension? Aren't both Javascript?

Hmm, I don't really know. I've never played with Gnome Shell extensions. From what I just read, they use Gnome Javascript - a special flavor of JS - but I would guess it would be easy enough to port it. The biggest hurdle would be converting the storage code from Chrome's APIs to whatever Gnome Shell Extensions use.
If you want to take a crack at it, the code is on Github. I think I'm more likely to try a FireFox extension before a Gnome Shell one, though I don't have a timeline on even that at the moment.
I'm afraid its a bit beyond my current skill set. For now though a Chrome extensions is definitely satisfactory! I'll follow your GitHub repo and work on that instead if I have an urge to make/suggest improvements :)
If you could post some screenshots that would be awesome, I don't use chrome much because it glitches on my Surface Pro, but this extension sounds quite useful.
There are screenshots in the Chrome Store, but I've added some to GitHub as well at the bottom of the repository main page.
