Subject: Re: Accessing iframe content with a Chrome extension - not via
 content script

You can inject a content script to all_frames and into the iframe, but
you can only access the inside of an iframe if it's the same origin.
you can also more directly use postMessage for frame messaging,
instead of background page messaging
