Chrome's Redesigned Extension Toolbar Menu

[Chandrasekhar Dwivedi]

Hey Everyone,

Hope you are doing well. I wanted to know your perspective on Chrome's redesigned extension toolbar menu. There are so many changes done here. For example, there is no option to remove an extension from here anymore. The three-dot menu against each extension now doubles as the Pin/unpin action. Most importantly, the control of host permissions is the one I am most curious about. All of the Allow/Dismiss stuff seems a bit too much to me.

Please share your thoughts.

It looks inconvenient, unattractive, and unpolished to me, but it's still in development and not enabled by default, so I guess you did it explicitly via chrome://flags/#extensions-menu-access-control. Hopefully it'll improve yet, but you should probably share your feedback early in https://crbug.com and don't forget to mention the flag.

Thank you for the warning!

This is pretty terrible :(

I better start implementing some permissions check because once user removes my "<all_urls>" permission, things will silently break :(

So, when I have "<all_urls>", does that mean I will see this bubble on every single page?
