Nice looking update you got here, be a shame if it was buggy!

Extensions like The Marvellous Suspender are currently partially broken in SBv4. TMS is an extension that allows the user to suspend a tab after a given period of time, typically by taking the URL and page title and appending it to a `chrome-extension://[Extension ID for The Marvellous Suspender].suspended.html` URL.

Trying to open a session with a mix of suspended and unsuspended tabs in Incognito will cause chrome-extension:// tabs to be opened in a NON-incognito window, while the expected https:// tabs will be handled properly and populate in an Incognito window.

This leads to having two windows open, one with unsuspended incognito windows and one with suspended non-incognito windows. For whatever reason, Session Buddy seems unable to place chrome-extension:// URLS into an Incognito session.

It's understandable that a major update to Session Buddy will have teething problems and edge cases like this, but I do hope this can be resolved relatively quickly. Session Buddy is a fantastic way of keeping track of websites via Incognito without necessarily having to accept a cookie for their own metrics, and I'd hate for this use case to be eliminated.
