New version of the chrome extension has been released. In the old version, I found that sometimes the PZ icon stops rendering. It was an intermittent problem that seemed to happen randomly. That issue has been resolved.

There is also now 2 permissions instead of one permission for every store... the reason for this change is to prevent disabling of the extension:

In Chrome, when extension permissions are modified, the extension is automatically disabled until the user accepts the permission change. This is why the Firefox extension is still on version 0.7, while we've had to publish 5 new chrome versions. The reason for the 5 versions, is that we added more stores, and each was explicitly named in the manifest.

In order to avoid this in the future, the chrome extension now has the same permissions as the firefox version, where it can read all product pages.

In case you didn't know, the extensions are just javascript. You can inspect the javascript by enabling developer mode on the extension page.

If anyone wants the previous permissions, you can use the beta version of the extension, which explicitly lists each store. The beta and standard extension are identical in every way except in the beta, the manifest file lists each store individually. This also means anytime I add a store, you'll need to approve the extension manually as the permission change will auto disable the extension in your browser.
