My extension has been rejected, but no reason has been provided, nor did I receive an email?
Is this normal?

Hi,

You should have received an email to the address registered on your developer account. If you've checked your spam etc, I'm not sure what happened there.

Looking at your item - it seems like it was rejected for using the `windows` permission. I was going to say this wasn't a valid permission, but taking a look, it seems we do actually support that as an alias for `tabs`. Today I learned!

If you'd like to open a case at https://support.google.com/chrome_webstore/contact/one_stop_support and let me know the case ID you receive, I think the team would be ok approving an appeal.

Longer term, I'd suggest switching that out for `tabs` if you can - while both work, and do the same thing, `tabs` is the more canonical way to do this.

Thanks,
